This 2009 movie is a classic in the rom-com genre, but it is not a love story 💔 Tom’s expectations about love & relationships (& women) leave him feeling heartbroken as he chases after his manic pixie dream girl, Summer. Join us as we discuss ALL of Tom’s red flags, our love/hate relationship with this misogynistic movie, and how our views on it have changed over time. Just a warning, the male gaze is RAMPANT in this film 👀
🎥 This movie stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Zooey Deschanel, Chloë Grace Moretz, Matthew Gray Gubler, Geoffrey Arend, Clark Gregg, Patricia Belcher, and Minka Kelly. Directed by Marc Webb.
