Last January 10, again, with my brother “boy gutom” we watched the movie 500 days of summer.
I was curious about the movie since it had no big promotions and PR, just talk of the mouth and many said it was a great movie.
At first, as we were watching we got confused on how the story goes because the movie skipped from one scene (day) to another. We should really focused on each day so that we can put it together for us to be able to understand the movie.
What I like about the movie are the lessons being convey. You can actually learn a lot from it while watching.
My favourite lesson in the story is when Tom (he was a greeting card message maker) realized that people like him is not supposed to composed messages for other people in order to express their feelings and thoughts. According to him, people should make their own way to show their emotions not by copying messages from other people they do not know.
Another one is when people fall in love they focused their attention to just one person. We tend to ignore other things around us, that is why when we got hurt it is hard for us to move on. Without knowing that sometimes those people who we ignore are the one who will love us back the way we do in the past. Maybe not all people believe in fate or destiny but sometimes it happens in the way that we do not expect it to happen
A remarkable movie for me… lessons learned… maybe it has part 2 since at the end of it Tom met another girl named Autumn. ♥
