A beautiful conversation

Rating: 10/10 (2 November 2004)

Watching this movie is like being engrossed in a conversation with a friend you haven't met in a long time, or with someone you've been admiring from afar, or with a really close friend who knows all of your secrets.
The film is short, but it seemed even shorter because I was thoroughly captivated, more than I was with Before Sunrise. Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy stepped into their roles with ease, bringing back Jesse and Celine as I remember them, albeit older and more cynical. I especially love that part when Celine sings her waltz.
This movie does not have special effects or testosterone-packed action sequences, it doesn't even have sex or physical foreplay, yet it captivates you with the beautiful script set in a beautiful place cast with beautiful actors.
I love Before Sunrise. I love Before Sunset even more.
