Truth about Jenny Beckman

Its 3pm now. Watchin 500 Days of Summer. Nice movie. But it aint a love story. And the pre movie disclaimer is awesome. They called Jenny Beckman, a bitch lol. Made me curious to know who she is. So googled her. If you havent taken the pleasure of seeing this movie, then do yourself some good and check it out. Beyond being a 'chick - flick', it is the phobia of many men to have their true hearts turned inside out and displayed for all to see. Such a well done piece of filming made intriguing by the film's opening screens. Now you have to watch it but for those who have, Jenny Beckman is a real person. Whether her name is pseudonym or not is irrelevant. Screenwriter Scott Neustadter was open about havin a fiery relationship that was out with his acceptance. Neustadter wrote 500 Days of Summer. Revenge is writing a film about the girl who dumped you. He and she still retain a good relationship as friends and he further commented : "She loved the story, she said. It had surprised and moved her because she really related to Tom. Yes, incredibly, Jenny hadnt recognized herself as Summer at all." Irony is fantastic!

  1. Sounds like Jenny is a real B. Happy for Scott. Is he married now?
