In our review of (500) Days of Summer we wrote that it was "a fresh and appealing romantic drama brimming with heart, creativity, and panache." It revolves around the relationship between Tom (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) who believes in marrying one's soul mate and Summer (Zooey Deschanel), a pretty young woman who doesn't believe in love — to her, it's a fantasy.
The screenplay by Scott Neustadter and Michael Weber depicts their romantic ride together as they experience all the exhilarations, disappointments, and disagreements in their complicated relationship. The result is a fascinating examination of sexual politics and the different ways individuals handle and define love. This Newmarket Shooting Script Book contains an exclusive introduction by director Marc Webb, forwards by screenplay writers Neustadter and Weber, the script, an 8-page color section, production notes, and complete cast and crew notes.
