Before Sunset (dir. Richard Linklater).
Nine years later, Before Sunset sets itself apart as an inventive way of continuing a story of love lost by revisiting these characters as far more practical and cynical thirty-something adults. Jesse and Celine have all sorts of emotional and relationship baggage yet just enough of their old selves. It has a near perfect introduction, revealing and building from its predecessor, and a pitch perfect ending, teasing the possibility of rekindling the past. It’s a mature coda to the dreams we have about love in our twenties and a truly affecting film about life after love.
