Oh, I love these kids. Fresh from the wonderful film, 500 Days of Summer, everyone’s two favorite indie film stars, Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt have filmed a music video (see this NYT article for the background on why, apologies, you might need to be a NYT subscriber to read). Great showcase for Zooey’s musical alter ego, She & Him, and their newest song, “Why Do You Let Me Stay Here”.

But what’s even better is the chemistry-laden, charming partnership between the two actors, who aren’t a couple in real life, but you kinda wish they were. Honestly, the hipster cuteness just oozes doesn’t it? Makes me want to cut some bangs and wear a flowered skirt every day!

I read a great article the other day that posited these two as a Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy for the new age of movie goers, and while they might not have the real-life couple chemistry, they can fake it pretty well! I’d love to see the two of them do more together.

Enjoy the video! It’s right here: http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/b137994_zooey_deschanel_adorable_times_500.html
