"Before Sunset" is one of the best movies I've ever watched. Watched is the wrong word - experienced is the correct word. With each scene I was drawn into the dynamics of these reunited lovers. I felt the nervous excitement that existed between the two. I could see myself in both of these characters and in their life situation. The complexity of emotions were wonderfully developed with each passing moment.
How many of us decide to pursue our best self instead of our honest self? How many of us don't understand that our best self comes from our honest self? How many of us live afraid of really loving? This movie explores the conundrum in which I believe the majority of us find ourselves;living lives that have caught our eyes instead of our hearts. In our cynical world most of us don't believe that love can or does occur in a matter of moments.
