"this is a story of boy meets girl ... but you should know, this is not a love story" - Narrator
The movie starts with the Narrator preparing you for what is to come. The main actors are introduced: Summer (Zooey) and Tom (Gordon). Zooey Deschanel is one of my favorite actresses right now, she is so captivating. And Joseph Gordon-Levitt has come such a long way from this:
The movie tells the story of 500 days spent (or sometimes, not spent) with Summer, Zooey's character. The story is told in such a creative way that you find yourself completely sucked into this (not) love story. The chemistry bewteen Zooey and Gordon is so intoxicating.
All emotions were extracted from me: I got mad, I laughed, and I cried. What else can you ask from a movie? Oh yes, there are 2 more things you could ask from a movie: to have an amazing soundtrack, and great fashion. I am listening to the soundtrack as I write this blog, it is perfect. In regards to fashion, I want to own every single outfit Summer wore.
Just a great movie!
