500 days of summer
why did i pick this movie even though i had seen some of the blockbusters of the year? simple. that's it, that's my answer. the movie was simple - and i loved the bleeding heck out of it!
first off, it reeled me in with its totally AMAZING, incredibly AWESOME cast :) zooey deschanel is one of my most favorite actresses! she is love. a little background on how i discovered her and fell in love with her: almost famous. nuff said.
then there's the REAL love of my life: joseph gordon-levitt. oh. hell. yeah. this guy is just fantastic! i have to admit that i was kinda surprised by the casting of this dude, but when i saw the trailer, then the movie, i knew why they chose him :D
i won't get into the plot because if you're reading this, - and that in itself is a shock - you would know that this movie is a genius of a film. it reminded me of eternal sunshine of the spotless mind. mind you, it had a minor glitch (case in point: the freaking ending!), but in the end, i had a blast watching it and crying and reacting and laughing all the way through it :) :) :)
i have to say that for his first film, marc webb did an outstanding job. good for you, marc webb! i hope you do more of these and not fall into the pitholes of "hollywood" stereotypical indie-movie-filmmaker-turn-superstar-mega-ass-kissing-hotshot-director! BOO if that happens! <> moving on.
so i gave you the hook and the line, here's the sinker: the music in this movie is freaking ridiculous! it's so awesome!!! i am so happy for films like this and for shows like SUPERNATURAL (yes, i promote them every chance i get - that's how much i love JARED and JENSEN, ok?) - they have opened up my mind and ears to really spectacular music! HOORAY for you!
so if you're like me who enjoys watching new, revolutionary cinema, check out 500 days of summer. it's worth your money and your while ;) ciao!
