Review of Before Sunset (2004) by Lukechristiansc — 22 Nov 2015
Our favorite couple is back in this nine year reunion, waiting to see this amazing absorbing couple finally will stay together or not or will be a couple or not. What Linklater is so good at when it comes to making these romance films is adding realism and making some factual messages about love and also shows us the talent that stars/co-writers Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy have in the screenplay, they make these words nuance erotic.
The pacing is amazing, the cinematography is fabulous and the locations are spot on. Nine years later, Jesse (Ethan Hawke) travels around across Europe giving readings of his novel he wrote about him in Vienna with Celine (Julie Delpy).
After his reading in Paris in a library Celine finds him and they spend a day before Jesse again has to leave for a flight. Their both in a relationships now, and Jesse has a son and a wife, but as their strong feelings for each other start to return, both confess a longing for more.
The film still is engaging and the chemistry between Hawke and Delpy is charming and witty, it's equally good as the first one.
