This is a great little romantic comedy with a twist. And the narrator tells you up front that this movie is "not a love story". And yet it was still romantic anyway. It stars Joseph-Gordon Levitt as Tom. Why does a guy have two last names? Was he married twice? Anyway, Tom is a greeting card writer who falls in love with a coworker named Summer, played wonderfully as always by Zooey Deschanel.
The movie follows a weird time line roaming back and forth sometimes starting near the end of the relationship and flashing backwards to the beginning but all of this works to great effect. Well shot, and an ode to downtown Los Angeles architecture this is a good movie, funny, entertaining, and not so predictable. Best of all it's an honest portrait of a couple's relationship. Just Queue It!
