The Zooey Deschanel/Joseph Gordon-Levitt film (500) Days of Summer will be released in select theaters, July 17th. The film is a wry take on “boy meets girl” and an important scene in the movie features music from The Smiths as a plot device. Fittingly, the soundtrack includes a cover from Deschanel's band with M. Ward, She & Him, of The Smiths’ "Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want."

The soundtrack is released on July 14th on Sire Records and boasts a cross-section of anthems of love and loss both past and present.
