Published Saturday, January 1, 2011 By Will. Under Film, In Tribute, Music, Television  Tags: 500 days of summer, american masters, carol burnett, Film, jay-z, Music, pbs  
There's three things I did today that will probably set the tone for my year. I watched 500 Days of Summer, a movie about a young lady named Summer and the man who loved her, but couldn't knock down her emotional walls. The angst and pain that came with that. ...
