Before Sunrise and Before sunset (movie review)

Recently, I watched Before Sunrise and its sequel Before Sunset starring Ethan Hawke (one of the characters of Dead Poet Society) and Julie Delpy.. I really love watching the movie.... The story is very idealistic, you'll never know if these kind of relationship would exist.

The movie follows Celine (julie delpy), A French grad student traveling back to Paris to attend school at La Sorbonne after having visited her grandmother in Budapest. And an American boy named Jesse (Ethan Hawke) on his way to Vienna to catch a flight back home after a traumatic break-up. They meet on a train and after talking for a while, Jesse convinced Celine to get off the train with him at Vienna and wind up spending one romantic evening together in Vienna. They talk about themselves, about dreams, about art, about relationships, about the dynamics of men and women, about each other. Throughout their conversations, you can track the entire evolution of a relationship, from attraction to flirtation to growing respect to understanding to romance.

Sometime through the night they click romantically and end up sleeping together in the park. After theyre one night stand, they'd promise to each other that they'll meet together at the same place after 6 months in Austria.. but on the day they'll be met, Celine's grandmother died and she has no choice but to attend the funeral instead and never meet Jesse in Austria. But after 9 years, they met accidentally in a bookstore in Paris when Jesse is having a book signing in his first novel. For not seeing for a long time they decided to have some intellectual talks together eventhough Jesse will only be stayingin Paris for two hours because of his flight back to America. The two are not happy to their relationship, Jesse marriage is not working anymore and Celine is not happy to his present boyfriend.

So the climax of the story is whether Jesse stays in Paris, file a divorce against his wife and be with Celine or He will come back to America and forget Celine?

The director gives the decision to the viewers the ending of the story. The story is still unpredictable. While Jesse is staying to the house of Celine, Celine said that he will gonna miss the plane and Jesse replied that he knows it. But will he stay longer and have a another flight or will he with Celine for the rest of their lives.

As what my bestfriend said to her blog on her Berore Sunrise/Sunset review: "There's really no implied ending... It all depends on you, the watcher, what their fate may be... I really love the ending, it makes you think..."
