Boy Chases Girl in ‘500 Days of Summer’
A nerdy-boy-meets-beautiful-girl flick, “500 Days of Summer” invites you into a love story set in Los Angeles. Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Daschanel play the lead roles in this first feature film for director Marc Webb. The Takeaway is joined by David Edelstein, chief film critic for New York Magazine, to talk about this summer not-quite-romance.
