The sister and I got to see a screening of 500 Days of Summer last night and seriously, you should all go see this movie when it comes out. Reasons why you should see this film:

* You will be so engrossed in this movie you will not notice things like discomfort. For example, the sister and I ended up sitting in the very front row, craning our necks at a 90 degree angle during the entire film and it was fine with us because Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel were mesmerizing.

* You might lose weight if you watch this film. The sister and I had been debating about which ice cream flavors to choose and I would've left to get said ice cream had I not been gloriously distracted by the music. So ear candy and not mouth candy equals less calories! And as an added bonus, also equals less guilt for skipping yoga class.

* You will hopefully walk out feeling like falling in love is awesome. Sometimes I am total asshat and I forget that loving feeling. Ya know, that feeling when you first fall in love with someone and everything in the world is so perfect and you want to break out into choreographed dances in the park with strangers and birdies? Well sometimes I forget that I felt all of that when I met Clyde. And sometimes I take him for granted and I forget that he did all of that for me and even made me a mix CD introducing me to the Smiths and Morrissey which I played over and over in a very dramatic way but loved every stinking moment of it. And every day I would wake up feeling so entirely awesome. Well sometimes I forgot all of that and wake up cranky instead of remembering how lucky I am. But after this film I went home and hugged Clyde lots and tried really hard to not wake up cranky this morning.

* You will develop a girl crush on Zooey, if you didn't have one already, and perhaps pick up some fashion tips resulting in an increased sense of self-confidence. Already I am liking my naturally wavy hair a little bit more, all thanks to Ms. Zooey.

So if you are even a little bit dramatic like me, this movie is a must-see. And even if you are not at all dramatic, still a must-see. And if you are super dramatic, well you should probably see it and then take all your friends to see it and then send me a letter thanking me for pushing you with my blog post to go see it.
