500 Days of Summer trailer

I did a one man boycott of anything ‘Sundance’ this year due to the controversy with the owner of some of the theaters the selections were playing at, and his involvement with Proposition 8. It’s because of this that I’m that only now finding out about 500 Days of Summer. Besides having two of the greatest actors I have ever seen in the lead (Joseph Gordon Levitt and Zooey Deschanel), by the way the trailer has me believing- the story is a fresh take on the romantic film genre.

I could go on and on, but the real reason I’m writing about this is because I’m in love with their clothes. Seriously! Look at Zooey’s costumes! They’re beautiful. I’d kill for that whole wardrobe. If I could pull off full bangs like her’s, without looking like I’ve just stepped off a boat from the Philippines, I’d grow my hair out in a second.

Another film I wanted to see more of, but am surprised at the lackluster reviews of, is Paper Heart, starring Michael Cera and his real-life girlfriend, Charlene Yi. After watching Charlene’s performance in Knocked Up years back, I went on a Myspace hunt for her profile. I found it after a few hours and after seeing her genuine talent in the comedy department, I can truly say that I’ve become a fan of hers. Anything that girl is in, I’ll watch.
