The coolest thing about this movie from the writers standpoint I guess is it did start out from a place of anger. It was set out to be like who was this bitch that broke my heart, I’m gonna take her down and I’m gonna write the movie for all the dumped people or whatever. And it’s really like the learning curve of the writing of it is totally parallel to what the character learns and hits its peak in this scene, which is fiction, but which culminates, you know, no one is the bad guy here. No one did anything wrong. You can’t, you can’t say, you can’t fault me for just not feeling the way you felt. And it was a great thing for me to learn and it’s a relief and I think it works and it’s powerful because it’s true. Scott Neustadter, co-writer of 500 Days of Summer
