What You Never Knew About 500 Days Of Summer Movie
Co-writer of the film Scott Neustadter admitted the film was based on a real romance. Neustadter explains that wh he met the real girl who inspired the character Summer as a studt at the London School of Economics in 2002, he was rebounding from a bad breakup back home, and promptly fell crazily, madly, hopelessly in love with the girl who returned his kisses but not his ardor. The ding of the relationship was painfully and unforgettably awful, which prompted him to co-write the film with Michael H. Weber. Wh Neustadter later showed the script to Summer's real-life counterpart, she said she related more to the Tom character.
Weber also stated that, we've all be in the trches of love, we've all gone through the highs and lows, so Scott and I felt that the only way to tell this story was to come at it from a completely real place. It was pretty interesting for us because Scott was just going through a break-up and I was in a long-term relationship, so we each brought a totally opposite perspective, living it and not living it, and I think that tsion helped to bring out more of the comedy.
Director Marc Webb has described the film as more of a coming of age story as opposed to a rom-com. He stated, We arrive at a differt conclusion, for one thing. Plus, most romantic comedies are more loyal to a formula than to emotional truth. It's about happiness, and learning that you'll find it within yourself, rather than in the big blue eyes of the girl in the cubicle down the hall. I wanted to make an unstimtal movie and an uncynical movie. In my mind, I wanted it to be something you could dance to. That's why we put a parthesis in the title – it's like a pop song in movie form. It's not a big film. It's not about war or poverty. It's about 500 days in a young guy's relationship, but it's no less deserving of scrutiny. Wh your heart is first brok, it consumes you. And it's an emotion I wanted to make a movie about, before I forgot how it felt.
Days Of Summer (soundtrack)
Webb also stated that Deschanel's character, Summer, is based on a stock character type; Yes, Summer is an immature view of a woman. She's Tom's view of a woman. He doesn't see her complexity and the consequce for him is heartbreak. In Tom's eyes, Summer is perfection, but perfection has no depth. Summer's not a girl, she's a phase.
Gordon-Levitt explained that he was drawn to the role of Tom because of his relatability to the character. I've had my heart brok before. Truly, truly brok. But wh I look back at me in my heartbrok phase, it's pretty hilarious, because it felt so much more extreme than it really was. One of the things I love about 500 Days of Summer is that it doesn't make light of what we go through in romances, but it is honest about it and shows it for what it is, which is oft profoundly funny.
Tom is se reading Alain de Botton's The Architecture of Happiness. The film was originally set in San Francisco but was later moved to Los Angeles and the script rewritt to make better use of the location.

In his article about cinematic cartography, Dr. Chris Lukinbeal suggests that the location of Angel's Knoll mirrors Tom's view of the world.
