These are best viewed back to back, with "...Sunrise" first. In it, a twentysomething American male (Ethan Hawke) meets a twentysomething French girl (Judy Delfy) on a train in Austria. After they converse and have coffee, he convinces her to get off with him in Vienna, where he is catch a flight home the next morning, rather than her continuing on to her home in Paris. They spend the better part of a day and the whole night together, parting the next morning. As they do, they agree to meet back in Vienna in six months, although they don't know each other's last names or addresses.The second film, "...Sunset" takes place nine years later. He has written a book about their hours together and is finishing up a book tour in Paris. The girl appears and they go off again, wandering the streets of that beautiful romantic city before his flight home that evening.
Bith films are filled with meandering conversations which at times seems very real. Hawke and Delfy actually wrote the dialog for the second film. Each one, particularly the second one, has long scenes of uninterrupted talk while walking and visiting various bistros along the way. And both end ambiguously. leaving the viewer to conject as to what happens next. Both are very romantic, realistic, and enjoyable.
Follow Ups:
poorly.
Besides, he's dumb. He was incredibly lucky to land Uma...and then he blew it with her. What a dufus.
I liked him in "Snow Falling on Cedars".
I never thought Uma was all that hot. Something seems to be just a little off with her face - maybe her eyes are too far apart... dunno what is it, but she doesn't do much for me.She is certainly better looking that Ethan though :-)
Is that bad Tin?
the blow job!

Rarely one sees such an empty pretentious dreck. There is absolutely nothing to hang your hat on in that film. She is attractive, but that's about it. The whole situation is so ridiculous it is laughable. She is ready to move in her life, and so is he - lucky strike, that convenient moment for both of them!
The garbage was abviously inspired by such films as "A Man and a Woman - 20 Years Later", but where the later had soul, this one has nothing but a deep void.My wife wanted to leave after first ten minutes, I made her stay, just to watch the babe, but I had to cringe every time they opened their mouths - and there was aplenty. Did you notive how they covered every "progressive" political issue, environemtal stuff, etc? One has to wonder if that was the whole point of that otherwise pointless work.
I am sure when I suddenly meet my sweetheart of 1970 I will start telling her how I saved the whales.
"My wife wanted to leave after first ten minutes, I made her stay, just to watch the babe,"And you say the movie has a deep void where there should be soul? Dude do I have to explain to you how shallow this makes you look?
Why would you dis your wife like that and tell us about it?"Did you notive how they covered every "progressive" political issue, environemtal stuff, etc?"
"My wife wanted to leave after first ten minutes, I made her stay, just to watch the babe,"
I am missing something.....
"Trash, especially inferior merchandise". Of course, I don't agree with Victor or his wife.
Well, it should have me humorous...Dreck is the German word for kaka...That is what I wanted to hear....
But thank you anyway!
Mon Amis...I've been catching up on my Korean/Japanese films of late and some of the best have been from Korean.
Excellent war films and psychological thrillers.
This weekend is reserved for Italy/France.

C’est MES amis. Il faut utiliser la forme plurielle de l’article possessif, puisque le nom est pluriel.
Salut,

What me worry for an " S " too much? It was any way meant for Mon ami.....Me...So I suppose...
I was at pain to see Victor at least for the second time avoiding the word " Kaka "...in his post.
Rico,Pretty decent little films but I would have fallen asleep if not for the locations...
Hawke and Delpy are a HOT item right now and I wonder if Uma saw both films?????

I am sorry I mis-spelled Delpy's last name.
