This romantic, witty, and ultimately poignant glimpse at two strangers (Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy) who share thoughts, affections, and past experiences during one 14-hour tryst in Vienna somehow remains writer/director Richard Linklater's (Dazed and Confused, Slacker) most overlooked gem. Delpy, a stunning, low-key Parisian, meets the stammering American Hawke, as the two share a Eurorail seat--she's starting school in Paris, he's finishing a vacation. Their mutual attraction leads to an awkward meeting (beautifully played by each performer), and Hawke suggests that Delpy spend his remaining 14 hours in Vienna with him. Typically, this skeleton is as much plot as Linklater provides; as usual, he's more interested in concentrating his talents on observing the casual, playful conversations between his leads. His tight time frame allows the characters to say anything to one another, and topics ranging from politics to past romances to fears of the future flow with subtle finesse. The short time frame is also cruel, however, because beneath this love affair lies the painful reality that the two most likely will never see each other again and will be left only with memories--an idea Linklater drives home with an effective snapshot conclusion. Hardly the trite Gen-X bitch session that many '90s films using this approach become, the film feels more like a Bresson or Rohmer piece, containing sharp perceptions--and flawed humans rather than stereotypes. The protagonists' frank revelations and heated exchanges flow in a stream-of-consciousness style, and its no accident that Linklater set the film in Vienna, where Freud invented and practiced psychotherapy. --Dave McCoy

 Much better than the first one December 8, 2008
Cinema Dweller (The Christmas Realm)
Don't get me wrong, because I'm a big fan of Linklater's movies. Especially "Slacker." But I never really enjoyed Before Sunrise due to the dialogue which sounded too much like Linklater. Sorry, he's just not a good dialogue writer. That movie would have been better if they had allowed the two principle actors to contribute to the script. Well, that seems to be what happened this time, and as a result, it's a much better movie. This movie would appeal to romantic types.
Excellent condition, very happy October 16, 2008

Item arrived in excellent condition and well within the promised receiving date. I am very happy with this transaction and purchase.
 Talky movie June 11, 2008
C. Monroe (Irvine, CA)
If you don't like 'talky' movies, skip this one. Loved the characters but when all they do is talk through the entire movie about nothing, I kept hoping it would get better. Then again, I don't like 'talky' movies.

I don't really going into great big detail over movies but this is really good, I truly love this movie it really feels true-to-life to say. You should watch it and the sequel Before Sunset as well.
