HOT OR NOT? 500 Days of Summer

The giveaways keep coming!
I  have a double pass to give away for a special preview screening of 500 Days of Summer at Melbourne Central. The film is an offbeat romantic comedy about a woman (gorgeous Zooey Deschanel) who doesn’t believe true love exists, and the young man (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) who falls for her.
