This is a story of boy meets girl, begins the wry, probing narrator of (500) DAYS OF SUMMER, and with that the film takes off at breakneck speed into a funny, true-to-life and unique dissection of the unruly and unpredictable year-and-a-half of one young man’s no-holds-barred love affair. Tom, the boy, still believes, even in this cynical modern world, in the notion of a transforming, cosmically destined, lightning-strikes-once kind of love. Summer, the girl, doesn’t. Not at all. But that doesn’t stop Tom from going after her, again and again, like a modern Don Quixote, with all his might and courage. Suddenly, Tom is in love not just with a lovely, witty, intelligent woman – not that he minds any of that -- but with the very idea of Summer, the very idea of a love that still has the power to shock the heart and stop the world.
A film watched with kc, colin, woon and tong yesterday. A wonderful story that highlights the simplicity and yet complicating relationship of lovers. An author whose another believers for fate. I'm also a believer. I believe that everyone we met in daily life are all linked by the word : FATE. There's always a reason in terms of the people we meet, friends that we had made and even family who are bond with us. Even so I'm sure GOD always have his reason for the fate that he had allocated for all of us. I also love the part where the author described the sadness in breaking up. Couples always felt sad when they broke up as they always focus on the great things that they had accomplished during their relationship and neglected the unhappiness in it. And i'm so agree with the sentence.
