Before Sunset

I just watched finished the movie Before Sunset... it's a really simple show but I think it's damn nice. Throughout the movie, I was engrossed with the two characters, their dialogue, and feel the way they do. It's so real. The awkwardness they feel when the first met after 9 years, how they start talking about themselves as friends, and slowly start digging into questions they had kept within themselves for years and in the end express their angst and feelings. You can see how the body language changes throughout the show, especially when they walk up the stairs to Celine's apartment. You can really see them knowing what might happen and yet.. the old love is so strong that you know if one of them turned back, they will probably regret. It's really very beautiful. I love the conversations. They talked about issues, environmental and poltical issues, about love, about life, about people. As they walk through Paris, you see the sights, mildly reflecting the culture there. It's about fate, how one event can change things so much, about having a second chance to sth that was lost. Should a person really follow his or her heart, or follow the paths that society has defined for them?


I wanna go Paris, i wanna watch the prelude of this show, I wanna find the song that she sang to him... the little Waltz.
