before sunset
Fifi brought up “Before Sunset” while we were chatting this afternoon. For most people, they find the movie boring as throughout the film all you could see is two people (julie delpy and ethan hawke) talking while walking with the scenic French cityscapes and River Seine as backdrop. For me, it’s one of the best movies Ive seen next to Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Closer.
I saw this one in October 2004 with Rosary, Jen, Ng Rhea, and Sis at G4. Rosary even got mad at me because I promised I’ll be at G4 by 1030pm but made her wait because I couldn’t leave the office yet. i even missed the first ten minutes of the movie… but that didnt ruin the movie for me. Anyway, here’s a few quotable quotes from Before Sunset. All of the quotes below were delivered by Celine, played by Delpy.
I guess it’s less painful to put certain things away than to live with it!
Memories are wonderful things, if you don’t have to deal with the past.
I guess a memory is never finished. So long as you’re alive…
I see in them little details, so specific to each other, that move me, and that I miss, and… will always miss. You can never replace anyone, because everyone is made of such beautiful specific details.
