As we roll into the dog days of summer 2024, the cast and creatives behind “(500) Days of Summer” look back on the movie and its legacy.
This is not a love story—this is a story about a story about love. Fifteen years ago this summer, Days of Summer landed in theaters, charming audiences with the tale of Tom Hansen , a greeting-card writer with a thing for The Smiths, and his romance with the fun-loving Summer Finn .

“You Make My Dreams,” a.k.a. “the best day ever” The jubilant dance number to Hall & Oates’s “You Make My Dreams,” after Tom and Summer’s first hook-up, became one of the film’s most resonant moments. Don’t just take our word for it: John Oates himself called it “one of the best integrated usages of a song in a film.” Neustadter: We’re in Tom’s head and he’s obsessed with pop culture. He’s watched all these movies and he listened to all this music.
