Before Sunrise, Before Sunset

    "An Ocean Apart" by Julie Delpy
  
  Now, we are together
  Sitting outside in the sunshine.
  But soon we’ll be apart
  And soon it’ll be night at noon.
  
  Now, things are fine
  The clouds are far away, up in the sky
  But soon, I’ll be on a plane
  And soon, you’ll feel the cold rain.
  
  You promised to stay in touch when we part
  You promised before I left that you’ll always love me
  Time goes by and people cry
  And everything goes too fast.
  
  Time goes by and people cry
  And everything goes too fast.


    Today, I watched "Before Sunset again. I found that it contained much more things than "Before Sunrise".

    There are nine years between the two movies. I cannot describe my feeling with words. In my view, it is better that there are some time between you watch the two movies. Maybe you can understand more about the meaning of the two movies.


    Nine years is not a very long time. But in one's life, it is actually a long time. As adults, they experienced many things: love, marriage and being parents. But reality tells us that women usually are more innocnet than men. Nine years later, Jesse Wallace had been a father of a four-year-old baby and he also had a looking good marriage. However, Céline had a boyfriend, but she could not confirm her marriage. Maybe in love, apparently, men worry more than women. Actually, women worry more than men. 

    Most of us are not that lucky. Many years later, we will borrow any chance to forget the people who we loved once.
