Don’t you just love to watch movies that challenge your mind? That makes you pay a little more attention to details and to dialogues? Movies that make you think about your own life and destiny? Movies that when you finish watching them you just can avoid feeling that you have grown? Maybe you even get wiser or more conscious of your own role in this crazy life ... I was watching this movie with my siblings, Before Sunset. A sequel to 1995’s Before Sunrise (when love can come as a complete surprise), starring Ethan Hawke and Julie Delply. The cover says “What if you had a second chance with the one that got away?” This movie is great in many ways, starting with the simplicity, yet beautiful directing, how scenes and endless conversations are filmed as they walk in Paris. The chemistry between the actors it’s just incredible, and they alone are able to make this an enjoyable movie, even though it’s all basically a big conversation’s between both of them. The dialogues are strong and the pacing is perfect. This is a movie that gives an honest view about life. That makes you ask yourself where we are in our lives. How much we’ve changed throughout the years. How far we are from our dreams, and are those dreams what we really wanted in the first place. Is what we say what we actually do? What we do is what we say we do? How far are we from being the persons we thought we would become? There are so many questions, and maybe we’ll never get straight answers, but what this movie does is reminding you to stop, take a look at the mirror, and then look around you and analyse how your life’s going.
