500 Days of Summer

Like many other fashion bloggers, I'm a big fan of Zooey Dechanel and she's been getting a lot of press lately.

From her album with M.Ward being hailed as one of the Best Albums of 2008, to being on the cover of the Febuary issue of Domino, and getting engaged to Ben Gibbard, she has had a really good year. I'll even forgive her for The Happening, because it's not her fault that M. Knight is loosing his touch.

We'll get to see even more Zooey this year. One movie I'm looking forward to seeing her in is 500 Days of Summer. The first feature film from music video director Marc Webb, also stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

The tag-line of this postmodern love story is "Boy meets girl-Boy falls in love-Girl doesn't" and the movie chronicles Tom (Gordon-Levitt) as he looks back at his past relationship with Summer (Dechanel). Add dance numbers and split screens and you have one quirky but endearing movie. Not your typical rom-com, which suits me just fine.

The movie comes out on July 24. Here's the teaser trailer and you can watch two clips from the movie here.
