A really simple plot yet it is able to clearly articulate a story - a story of a boy and a girl. Classified as a rom-com, I prepped myself for a oh-so-cliché plot, thinking that it would make me feel warm and fuzzy inside and go gaga over the male or female leads. Indeed, the casts are worth swooning over. But what really caught me was the plot. Presented in a non-linear, non-fanciful way. 500 days of summer tells a compelling story that people can totally relate to. Really. I'm all in.
Watch it if you have not. Trust me. It's worth 90 minutes of your time.
I'm sure I'm going to blog about Zooey Deschanel pretty soon. Her style and her character, it's simply impeccable.
Thank you for reading.
