Underscore: (500) Days of Summer
05.03.26
Underscore is a monthly exploration of movie soundtracks guided by Mary. Each episode highlights music and sounds from specific films, genres, or the broader filmography of a director.
Just as underscoring in film enhances emotions and narratives, Underscore delves into the profound impact that music has on shaping us personally and on the emotional landscape of cinema.
This month’s episode is inspired by a few recent walks through Downtown Los Angeles. These walks reminded me of how much DTLA has always meant to me since I was a kid and how special it feels to see familiar buildings and streets in movies like (500) Days of Summer :)
