My favorite movie

I have read countless films, and I know it is rare to encounter a good film. In my sophomore year, the School of Radio, Film and Television used to show movies in the multifunctional hall, and that night there were only a few people sitting scattered in the audience. After seeing the movie, I was so excited that I couldn't speak. Since then, I have been shopping for discs and ran all over Changchun's big and small disc shops, and finally found it a year later. I have read it eight times so far, and I have new feelings every time.
Linklater's shooting method is really too risky, a lot of long shots often make people drowsy, not to mention only constant dialogue. I can only say that he is a genius! There is no procrastination in the long dialogue, only moving and thinking. The performance of Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy is also natural. I have seen the filming introduction of the film, and I know that such a difficult long shot is often done once and again, and the actors still have a lot of improvisation. What a pleasant process to create this film!
If the film is no longer produced but such an elegant creation, I can't imagine how many good films should be enjoyed.

Before Sunrise quotes

  • Jesse: Sometimes I dream about being a good father and a good husband. And sometimes it feels really close. But then other times it seems silly like it would ruin my whole life. And it's not just a fear of commitment or that I'm incapable of caring or loving because... I can. It's just that, if I'm totally honest with myself I think I'd rather die knowing that I was really good at something. That I had excelled in some way than that I'd just been in a nice, caring relationship.

  • Celine: I like to feel his eyes on me when I look away.
