Quick Snaps: '500 Days' at SXSW

500 Days at SXSW by J. Kernion

On Friday, the romantic comedy (500) Days of Summer opens here in Austin, at Arbor and Alamo South. But this isn't the first time the movie has screened in town -- it was the closing-night film for SXSW 2009. I managed to take a few photos that evening. Everyone wanted to get a shot of the two stars, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel, pictured above.

Slackerwood will be posting a group review of the film on Friday, so come back tomorrow and find out what we thought of it. And after the jump, I've got a couple more photos from the SXSW screening.

Here's a picture of all the (500) Days of Summer cast/crew attending the SXSW screening: director Marc Webb, writers Scott Neustadter and Michael Weber, actor Matthew Gray Gubler, Gordon-Levitt and Deschanel.

And here's a nice photo of director Webb during the Q&A:
