The anal girl


(500) Days of Summer (2009)

Directed by Marc Webb this film stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Zooey Deschanel and Chloe Grace Moretz. A greetings card writer meets a girl who he falls in and out of love with.

As we all know the path of the romantic comedy is a thoroughly well trodden area and this film does not necessarily have a lot to offer in terms original events. Where this film is better is the non-linear nature of the narrative helps give the film a more interesting tone which is refreshing. There are good performances from the cast and the direction certainly helps create a good atmosphere that stays clear of the usual genre pitfalls.

4/5
