Preview for <i>(500) Days of Summer</i>, Starring Zooey Deschanel (Video)

(500) Days of Summer, a new film starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel, looks like it's a synthesis of every indie music-nodding film to be released in the last two years (like Juno and Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist), except that it stars Deschanel and has music from the Smiths instead of the Moldy Peaches (which is way cooler, as you may know). The film's full preview has jut hit the net, and it starts with Deschanel telling Gordon-Levitt she loves The Smiths, and then romance follows afterward. A voiceover says this ain't no love story, but given the two minutes we can see here, that seems to be a lie.

(500) Days of Summer is due out soon. [Stereogum]
