I just want to tell you about a movie titled ‘500 days of summer’.
Before I watched this one, I thought the movie was about someone's memory of summer days but it is about the memory of a boy who had a girlfriend named ‘Summer’.

This is the story of Tom and Summer.
Whatever you are imagining, this movie will betray your expectations because it is not a typical romantic movie. This movie has something special. I don't want this to be a spoiler, so I can’t tell you the crucial parts.

Instead, I will point out 3 strong points.
First, this movie has good main characters. That’s why it’s easy to get immersed in this movie. The acting is great and their words are connotative and meaningful.

Second, you can listen to a high-taste original sound track. The director of this movie, Marc Webb, has made a lot of music videos. I really love every single song in this movie, especially ‘Here Comes Your Man’. Tom sang this song in a karaoke style bar.

Third, their fashion was great. Summer wore good office clothing. It was not too attractive and not too ugly. It seemed just normal, but wearable and comfortable, so it makes seem more realistic.

I worry that maybe you won’t understand Summer’s behavior or words easily.
But this movie shows a realistic relationship with misunderstandings and expectations, because you want to believe in the good while you are falling in love. I hope you can fully enjoy this movie.
