Before Sunrise

*I dare everybody to watch this film! * The one thing I can't shake loose about this movie is just how hyper-realistic almost everything is. Heavily emphasised on the dialogue, which is just perfect. It builds this close, romantic but realistic dynamic, whilst not ignoring the individual character types. This little tension, awkwardness and kind of constant on going fight was never dismissed, it was there in every moment. Thus, I can honestly say that this is the most accurate depiction of a date-like event I have ever seen. The conversations are the same, like actually the exact same, the disagreements are very similiar and the chemistry was perfectly hit. So that I really get my point across here, I like how Jesse often disagrees with Celine and he's basically negative about a lot of stuff, which is like so fucking relatable but then Celine just goes with it, there is an awkwardness to it, which is caught perfectly, nevertheless she still accepts it and doesn't get distant. That's the one point it's missing on the realistic part, the moment where it all falls down, he/she says something so incredibly weird or stupid, it makes the other lose interest, the vibe randomly just wears down and now both feel somewhat empty and are just waiting for the date to end. *Maybe that's just my life though and the movie is right. * I think the acting was very convincing and again realistic. I really liked the storytelling in general and their voices were amazing. Additionally, I have to say, I associate with basically every aspect this film mentions, even if they contradict each other, I still feel a connection to them. This just felt too crazy for me, how in every scene I could pick up on something and feel a resemblance to my own life or thinking. Lastly, I still want to mention some things. Celine's personality is so stereotypical, especially nowadays that I couldn't believe she was exactly what she looked like. She had her personality written all over her face. It was also cool to have heard some actual German in movies and not something that I can't even understand. And I have to admit that I was waiting the entire time for them to go to the cow play and got really anxious about that, but what made me worry the most was how expensive this trip was... 4,5 stars + like My Favourite movies of all time Immediately up there amongst my fav romances. *Simultaneously watched with Neli*
