Before Sunrise
One of the most beautiful and genuine love stories I’ve seen and I’m usually not into romance movies. This film basically consisted only of conversations between the two main characters, while wandering through Vienna, but those conversations felt so authentic and realistic. You could really feel how Jesse and Celine developed a genuine bond throughout the movie, and they both felt like real humans. Ain‘t no way Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy didn’t fall in love with each other after filming, they had such an insane chemistry.
Right now I also would’ve liked it more if it were only one movie and not a trilogy so we could only guess what happens after the film and if they actually meet again, because knowing they will meet again, kind of ruins the film's sadness. But maybe I'll change my mind once I've seen the other movies.
9.6/10
