Boy meets girl
Boy falls in love
Girl doesn't

When Tom, a hapless greeting card copywriter and hopeless romantic, is blindsided after his girlfriend summer dumps him, he shifts back and forth through various periods of their 500 days "together" to try to figure out where things went wrong. His reflections ultimately lead him to finally rediscover his true passions in life.

This post modern love story is never what we expect it to be -- It's thorny yet exhilarating, funny and sad, a twisted journey of highs and lows that doesn't quite go where we think it will.

Zooey and Joe on “The Creative Process”

“I sometimes think though that starting things–you sort of kind of have to pretend like you have a really good idea and convince yourself and others that you do. And then they jump on and then it turns into a good idea. It kind of creates something out of nothing.” – Joe

Zooey Deschanel’s List of Summertime Activities in Self

Although Deschanel is busy this month promoting her latest film, 500 Days of Summer (nice coincidence, right?); working on the second album by her band, She & Him; and planning her wedding to Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie, she’s eager to make the most of the season. “You can’t force fun,” she says, “but you can set up situations where fun will happen to you.”

Wonderful Zooey Deschanel on Conan

So, so good to see Zooey Deschanel herself, not in character, on Conan O’Brien. Thanks to Megan for sending in this clip; I missed it when it aired the first time and this is must-see.

Some interesting tidbits in this casual interview with director Marc Webb, including the fact it was Joe Gordon-Levitt who suggested Zooey Deschanel as a must to play Summer Finn.

New “TV Spot” for 500 Days of Summer

This ad played after a video I watched on theonion.com. I thought it was pretty cool and funny so I ripped it here. Geoffrey Arend has a great line. Has anyone spotted other ads around the net?
