Before Sunrise
*"Don’t you know me?
*Don’t you know me by now?"
I wish I had conversations that feel like this, without trying to upstage the other person or dig further with ill intention. I loved how they reached conflict because they both stand so firmly in their beliefs and that's what makes them real and raw and even despite it they fell in love with each other. With their similarities and differences and managed to have the most humane experience in the span of one night.
I don't think I'll ever fully get over how present they are in their moments, how they listen and they don't just respond, they're actually talking. How she likes feeling him stare at her when she's not looking, how he thinks she's his angel. It's beautiful.
''Isn't everything we do in life a way to be loved a little more?'' I feel like, even as a romantic this tugged at my heartstrings and changed me somehow, fundamentally.
