10 (500) Days of Summer Questions | Movies Trivia Quiz

Answer: Zooey Deschanel

Actress and musician Zooey Deschanel plays Summer Finn. This was one of two high profile movies she appeared in in 2009. The other one was "Yes Man". Joseph Gordon-Levitt, of "3rd Rock From the Sun" fame, plays Tom Hanson.

Answer: Los Angeles

According to Summer, Los Angeles is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. She moved there from the fictional Shinnecock, Michigan for a change of scenery, and Tom had moved there from Margate, New Jersey, probably with his family, as they live close by. He enjoys the architecture of the city and has a favorite spot to sit to look at it.

Answer: The Smiths

Tom is listening to a Smiths song in the elevator, and Summer hears it and comments positively on his taste in music. Tom takes this as the first sign, and tries to entice her by playing a song by them on his computer as she walks by in the office.

Answer: Ikea

They are routinely seen running through the store pretending to be a married couple and playing "house". However, at later moments in the relationship, it doesn't seem to be as much fun anymore.

Answer: The Graduate

It is because of this movie and his love of "sad British pop" music that he feels he will never be happy until he finds "the one".

Answer: Ringo Starr

She explains that she loves him basically because nobody else does. Often Tom would find one of Ringo's solo albums in a record store and show it to Summer to get a laugh out of her, but that soon wears down.

Answer: She starts an argument with him at her apartment.

They walk back to her place while he holds an icepack on his lip, and then she tells him she doesn't need his help. Tom argues whether or not they are couple, speaks his peace, then leaves in a huff. Summer later goes over to his place, apologizes, and spends the night with him.

Answer: Pancakes

After watching "The Graduate", they go out and have pancakes (per suggestion of Tom, possibly to try to cheer her up), but while they are waiting for them, she confesses she wants to end the relationship while still being friends, comparing the two of them to Sid Vicious and Nancy (with her being Sid) for the last few months. Shortly after being served their food, Tom gets up dejected and walks out on her.

Answer: He quits.

In an attempt to get Summer back, he boards a train to the wedding of a co-worker because he knows Summer is going. They get along very well at the wedding and reception, and even dance together. She then invites him to a party on the roof of her apartment complex, and Tom hopes their relationship can come back to life... until he sees the ring on her finger.

He leaves in a huff, then falls into a depression that lasts for a few days. When he finally returns to work, he basically disses the entire greeting card industry in a meeting, and then quits.

Answer: Autumn

After quitting his job, he spends the next 20 or so days reapplying himself to architecture (which he trained for to begin with) while Summer prepares for and has her wedding with the guy she met six months earlier. On day 500, he goes in for an interview, ends up talking with the girl also going for the same job, and they decide to go out for coffee afterwards. She introduces herself as Autumn... and the day clock started at 1 again.

Elaine is the main girl in "The Graduate".
Alison is the girl Tom goes out on a date with sometime after he and Summer break up (which ends in disaster).
There is no other girl named Summer in the movie.
