Hello bloggers!
So, this is a special day because today I’m going to tell you about my favorite movie. It was truly difficult to make the choice, but finally I have chosen “500 Days of Summer”.
Before giving you my reasons, I will tell you some general aspects about the movie.
This is a comedy, drama and, of course, romantic film released in 2009. It was directed by Marc Webb, and stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt (as Tom Hansen) and Zooey Deschanel (as Summer Finn).
It narrates the story of Tom, a frustrated architect who works writing greeting cards messages, a boy who believes in eternal, honest and romantic love, whose life is actually empty until the day he meets Summer, the new assistant to his boss. She’s a girl who doesn’t believe in love, she thinks on “living the moment” without getting responsibilities.
Well, what do you think?.. Tom sees her and, of course! immediately falls in love: she’s everything he have dreamed of, they listen to the same music, read the same books, make fun at the same things. But there’s a little –but important- difference: he thinks he had found the love of his life. She doesn’t think so.
One peculiarity of the film is that it shows the end since the beginning: we all know they break up. The important thing here is to know the separation process, the meeting process, how do they love each other and how do they hate each other. How Tom creates all a story inside his head and how Summer has an idea completely different. How Tom teaches her to believe in eternal love, and how she teaches him to don’t believe on it at all.
They show us a reality inside many couples: when you’ve got a different idea, when you expect something different of your partner, then it’s really difficult to stay together. And that's why I really really love this movie. Basically it came to me in the very moment of my life. I could even say that this movie made me “open” my eyes and see that, well, we all suffer sometime for love and then we think that life is unfair and we cry and all we want to do is just die. Okay, that's part of the process, but then I realized that life isn’t like all the non-ending love stories that we hear when we’re childrens.
Another aspect that makes me really love it, is the soundtrack. Regina Spektor, The Smiths, She & Him and many others artists are involved, the right song at the right scene and that makes all the movie simply amazing.
So, I've got a present for you! Here we have the Official Trailer!!
