500 Days of Summer



"Narrator: This is a story of boy meets girl. The boy, Tom Hansen of Margate, New Jersey, grew up believing that he'd never truly be happy until the day he met the one. This belief stemmed from early exposure to sad British pop music and a total mis-reading of the movie 'The Graduate'. The girl, Summer Finn of Shinnecock, Michigan, did not share this belief. Since the disintegration of her parent's marriage she'd only love two things. The first was her long dark hair. The second was how easily she could cut it off and not feel a thing. Tom meets Summer on January 8th. He knows almost immediately she is who he has been searching for. This is a story of boy meets girl, but you should know upfront, this is not a love story. "


What a sweet surprise this was. I am the ultimate sucker for romantic comedies. As far as these movies go, nothing makes me happier than your typical boy meets girl>>>falls in love with girl>>>>>boy ends up with girl plot. (with some sort of conflict to overcome right smack in the middle of course) lol. This movie was different though. It's not you typical fairy tale ending but a happy one overall. More than anything....realistic. This movie is a movie that I'm sure all of us who have been in a relationship can relate to. I mean step by step I saw a little of Tom in me (lead guy played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt) It's really really a treat...so WATCH IT.






"Narrator: If Tom had learned anything... it was that you can't ascribe great cosmic significance to a simple earthly event. Coincidence. That's all anything ever is. Nothing more than coincidence. "








SERIOUSLY THOUGH>>>WATCH IT :) lol
