post 2: 500 days of summer

a while ago i saw 500 days of summer in vancouver at the fifth avenue cinemas (which is the most badass little place, it plays a really good selection of movies including some more interesting ones that have been picked for film festivals http://www.festivalcinemas.ca/ point being that i saw this movie that now seems to be exploding everywhere which it really should, because its got fantastic acting and a really good story line, best part is that its not all sappy romantic but its just really good. and the fact that boyfriend could sit through this and not get 'notebook-ed' or a 'walk to remember-ed' (not that those arent two beautiful movies) but this is not really only a romance film, as the opening line goes this is not a love story.

who: Zooey Dechanel who just recently married the lead singer of Death Cab for Cutie and Postal Service Benjamin Gibbard outside Seattle somewhere and are best couple ever) and Joseph Gordon-Levitt (super sexy guy)

watch the 500 days of summer trailer


basically it was good so i really recommend you see it if ur ever like hmm i dont kno what to watch, great for just a rainy night which we all know we will get plenty of especially if you live in vancouver or holland.

ps. the soundtrack rocks my boxers of so much. it features regina spektor, the smiths, hall and oats, simon and garfunkle, fiest, she & him and doves. just super super solid, like the film.
somehow diablo cody(writer of juno) is in the mix there too cause she shows up in all the photos from events that feature 500 days of summer. all these cool people run in the same circle. the a little non nuts - totally nuts hollywood scene.

ps. whip it a movie staring ellen page directed by drew barrymore which is getting a rating of 82 on rotten tomatoes is playing at the fifth ave. cinemas and probably other places it looks pretty good. going on the list of movies to watch.
