sex, dating, relationships, ask sam: "'This is not a love story.' So says the omniscient narrator in the brilliant romantic comedy 500 Days of Summer.
The premise of the film? It shows off the male side of innocent love that is blinding, real and without fear of consequence.
The result? Heartbreak of the worst kind. Which is probably why the screenwriter decided to add the line that this no love story at all. Symptomatic of our generation's lukewarm opinion of love (or so I've discovered), this got me thinking about the notion of innocent love, and whether or not it's even a viable option these days."
