seasons of love

Yesterday I attended a free preview screening of 500 Days of Summer, which will be released in theaters July 17. Directed by Marc Webb, the film stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt (the guy who wasn't Heath Ledger in 10 Things I Hate About You) opposite Zooey Deschanel (the perennial "quirky girl" and one-half of the band She & Him). With the tagline "Boy meets girl. Boy falls in love. Girl doesn't," which sums up the plot of the movie surprisingly accurately, this romantic dramedy is the anti-love story (or a "realistic and modern" love story, depending on which way you want to look at it), whose endearing characters are perfectly packaged in clever filming, flawless comedic timing, and witty script writing. Plus, Gordon-Levitt spends pretty much the entire movie in either skinny ties and cardigans or skinny jeans and band T-shirts. So my heart was pretty much won over from the start.

This video makes me miss Praha (both the city and the idea of the city) every single time.

i guess the hair adds a couple inches

Paul Rudd and Jack Nicholson are surprisingly short.

I'm working tomorrow on the new James L. Brooks movie starring Reese Witherspoon, Owen Wilson, Jack Nicholson, and Paul Rudd.

I am so excited.

Even crazier though is that I met the guy who called me about it in the hospital waiting room. It's a lot less sketchy than it sounds, I promise. And no, he was not the one being checked out.

that's what you get for waking up in vegas

On Saturday, my friends and I went to see "The Hangover" while hungover, which albeit was a cliche move on our part but it definitely did not detract at all from the experience. The movie was easily one of the funniest films I've seen in a long time, a blend of comedy and mystery, tigers and babies.

But the real question remains: was the perfectly timed release of Katy Perry's latest single "Waking Up in Vegas" planned to coincide with the film's Box Office takeover, or was it all just cosmic luck?
