One of the more interesting interpretations of the film is that the last conversation between the guy and Zooey was in his head, it never happened and was just another way of him dealing with the fact that she wasn't "the one".
There are certainly some "fake" moments in the movie, the dancing scene which was very funny, the black and white flashbacks of Zooey's history that was his projection of her of the perfect woman, and IMO their break-up was fake, or at least told from a non-credible point of view.
Zooey IMO did a fantastic acting job in the movie, she didn't just play a character, but rather a character as perceived by another character.
At any rate, it was an orginal story, filmed well. -

WebsurfinbirdI thought this was a great movie as well. But I am a chick, so not sure my opinion holds much weight on this threadm
