(500) Days of Summer (2009)
On day 1, Tom Hansen meets Summer Finn, his boss’ new assistant. Tom is an architect working as a writer at a greeting card company. They discover that they have a similar taste in The Smiths. On day 28, at a karaoke night for their work, they talk about love. Tom believes in it, but Summer does not. Tom’s friend and co-worker McKenzie drunkenly reveals that Tom likes Summer, which he asserts is only “as friends”, something Summer agrees with. On day 31, Summer spontaneously kisses Tom in the office. On day 34, Summer tells him she is not looking for a serious relationship. Tom agrees to a casual relationship. That night they have sex; Tom is elated.
After several months of dating, they grow closer. Both Tom’s friends and his preteen half-sister Rachel push him to ask Summer where they are in their relationship, though Summer brushes this off, saying that it should not matter if they are both happy. On day 259, Tom fights a man who tries to pick Summer up in a bar, causing their first argument. The next night, she visits Tom at his apartment, and they make up. Tom asks about their relationship, wanting consistency. Summer says she cannot promise him how she would feel in the future. However, to show him how she currently feels, she kisses him. He reciprocates; they spend the night together. On day 290, after meeting at a cafe, Tom wants to go back to Summer’s but she insists on seeing The Graduate. She weeps at the ending, surprising him, as he’d always thought it was a romantic fairy tale. Later, at the record store, Summer is distracted, and kisses him good night on the cheek.
