500 Days of Summer

Between her cloyingly unfunny sitcom, New Girl, and her ubiquitous iPhone 4 commercials, she's way overfulfilled my daily -- nay, annual or even lifetime -- recommended dosage of Zooey Deschanel quirk.

Clark Gregg, who plays Agent Coulson in a little movie called "Marvel's The Avengers," stopped by the Huffington Post offices on Monday for a chat. Oh...

It didn't work out so well for their characters in "500 Days of Summer," but Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel have gotten together to make the...

This slight coming-of-age tale works better than it has any right to, thanks to the performances by the young actors and several of the supporting cast.

When I saw Josh Radnor's HappyThankYouMorePlease at Sundance in 2010, I wrote that it was "a hit-and-miss romantic comedy, a little too eager to pleas...

Does No Strings Attached manage to rise above the morass? Or is it further proof that the romantic comedy is a genre that should be put out of its misery?

I've seen Scott Pilgrim vs. the World before. A year ago, when it was called 500 Days of Summer. The spate of odes to delayed-adulthood are a call for help.

The emotions surrounding the MPDG run deeper than mere resentment. They are Amazing Manic Pixies only while they are loved. Before that, they are merely everyday women, and afterwards, they are harpies.

The roots of Sundance were acres of granola-flavored films about people in small towns or women in crisis or something that was equally high-minded but was consistently bemoaned as not being particularly commercial.

Can the music business take a page from the movie industry's playbook and figure out how to reconnect people to music in a more personal way?

Arguably the biggest music duo of all time have said they're able to coexist and churn out hits and perform because they don't drive each other crazy and let each other do their own thing.

Peter and Vandy is touching and insightful, a film that understands what that first whoosh of emotion in a relationship feels like -- and how quickly love can change and vanish.

Just when I despaired about the overweening cleverness of screenwriters confusing a chopped up timeline with intelligence and craft, two films popped up to prove there's still life in this unconventional convention.

I spoke to the most successful pop duo in music history on their new four-disc box set and their roles on the Cleveland Show.

"Of all the groups or duos out there, [SNL] pick us to use because we've achieved this iconic status of sorts," Oates said. "They're not going to pick someone the world doesn't recognize."

I've assembled a list of movies that showcase lead characters names in the titles in both odd and clever pun-driven ways. Some of these may have been obvious to you, other puns might be so bad that you'll only realize them now.

Scott Neustadter: There's no such thing as villains in real relationship stories, just two people who don't feel the same. It sucks but it's nobody's fault.

(500) Days of Summer is not the smartest, funniest or sleekest movie to which Fox didn't invite me this year -- but in its pretentious mope-rock way it is ambitious, thoughtful and fulfilling.

Tom, the central character in Webb's directorial debut, isn't just hit by the love hammer - he's pounded into the ground like a tent peg.

You can feel strained sometimes but ultimately, like a persistent movie suitor, this film charms through sheer force of effort.

Marc Webb's film is pleasingly offbeat, if inconsistently quirky, as it bounces through time, forward and backward, in the life of this doomed relationship.
