Relationships: Before Sunrise and Before Sunset
Recently, watched two movies- "Before Sunrise" and "Before Sunset" (sequel to before sunrise). Thanks to Bibin for giving me the VCD/DVD. Very different movies. Enjoyed a lot about them. Again before sunrise is similar to two other movies which I liked a lot. One is Roman Holiday and the other is Mr and Mrs Iyer. Both movies also have similar kind of short time chemistry between hero and herione with the fact that they would never meet again.
Before Sunrise: Simple story of a boy and girl in which they spend one day together and starts liking each other.
SPOILERS AHEAD:
In the end they depart with a promise of meeting after six months. Very simple storyline, but the chemistry which comes out is amazing. worth watching.
Before Sunset: They meet again after 9 years and discuss how they had been over that period.
The things I loved about both the movies is that they both liked each other. As they were knowing that it was the only night together, so they live to the fullest. And after that they live that night for whole life. Had they been stayed, things might have different. They might have stopped liking each other.
But again, as that one night relationship becomes the ideal for them, they cant get into any other happy relationship again. They will always compare it with that. They will never be stop imagining and fantasying about it forever. As they saw anything wrong in each other, it would always be ideal for them.
In my personal opinion, reality kills the idealism and romantic lives which people fantasize to live. Thats why, mills and boons still sells the fantasy world and people buy it. Again if you like someone a lot, it may not be bad idea, to keep a distance to him/her so that he/she remains your ideal love, otherwise reality will intrude into your fantasies :)
