Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy
Thank you for reading my blog!I think this is the right time to write about this movie.This is my favourite movie " Before Sunset".There is another movie called "Before Sunrise".same director,actor and actress.Jesse(Ethan Hawke) and Celine (Julie Delpy) met on the train 9 years ago.They spent a romantic night together.(one night stand...)They felt something each other and they didn't want to say goodbye.But Jesse had to go back to the States and Celine had to go back to Paris.So they made promise to come back the same station in 6 months.....anyways please see this movie,"Before Sunrise" as well.(my another favourite movie!)
Jesse wrote a book about the night they spent time together 9 years ago and the book is selling in the States and European countries.He was visiting European countries for the campain of the book and one day he came to the book store in Paris.

Celine lives in Paris and unexpectedly found Jesse is coming that book store!She got Jess's book, read it a couple times and showed up Jesse's autograph session day.
She was listeding what Jesse was talking to audience and the press but finally she looked in Jesse's face.That was great surprise for Jesse!!After autograph session they said " hi" each other and decided to have a coffee till Jesse's flight to New York.

They haven't seen each other so long.During walking to the cafe,they asked each other if they showed up 9 years ago,what they do now,....
At the cafe they figured out they were living NY same time...they chat chat and fill in the life blank each other.
Jesse wanted to take a walk with Celine like 9 years ago so they left the cafe.Celine takes him to nice place to walk.
Jesse never talked about his wife and kid, Celine never talked about current boyfriend.It seems that they avoid to talk about it....
Celine says " we didn't sleep." Jesse says" yes, we did." Celine says "I'm right." Jesse says "Is that so forgettable?"
The day 9 years ago is the most romantic day in their life....but Jesse got married and have a son,Celine has a boyfriend now so they try to act like an adult.Just talk different topics.They started to talk about what they believe ,gohst,spirits,reincarnation,god,the universe,...and Celine ask "if we were both going to die tonight..,what we talk...?",Jesse answered "talk the universe...in the hotel room..." Celine suggests" how about on the bench in front of us?" ...Jesse grabbed her arms and sit her on him...they look pretty happy but Celine trys to make room between him.Jesse moves close to her.

Celine says "you are gonna miss your flight." she grabbed his arm and let him stand up and started to walk again. Next topic was Jesse's family and Celine's boyfriend.They sound jealous each other...
Jesse finds the boat(Canauxrama).That reminds him 9 years ago they had a coffee on the boat in Vienna.Celine is from Paris so she said that's too embarrassing...Jesse forced (..kind of..) to get on the boat, finally Celine agreed with it.Jesse called to the driver to pick him up next boat stop.Time up is very soon...

They keep talking and Jesse remembered how much he wanted to see her .Celine as well.She tells him she remembered him and missed him.Jesse says to Celine,"You wanna know why I wrote that stupid book?...So you'd come to a reading in Paris and I could walk up to you and ask,where the fuck were you?" Celine:"No, you think I'd be here today?" (she can't hide her happy face) Jesse:"I'm serious, I think I wrote it,in a way, to try to find you."
Celine is so happy to hear from him like this but she knows they're gonna apart very soon so she trys not to fall in love with him again...But Jesse always thinks she would have been,his life might have been so much different...
Celine:"Past is past." But Jesse talks all his regret...
Celine changes topic about his wife and marriage life.Then she trys to compose the feeling to Jesse.
Jesse keeps talking but the boat arrived at next stop. Celine:"Well, we're here.We gotta go."
Jesse :" Shit." mumble....
