Before Sunrise


So.. Hidup di jaman sekarang tentunya ga bisa lepas dari Internet. Dimanapun gw berada gw pun selalu buka internet. Gw bangun tidur pun hal pertama yang gwlakukan adalah buka hp dan cek internet. Ada beberapa website langganan yang selalu gw buka. Salah satunya adalah buzzfeed.com . buzzfeed itu.. well it's so much more than just an ordinary website, ada news section, gossip section, LOL section, DIY section.. dsb. Well gw suka sama website ini karena it offers a variety of articles. Funny ones of course, like for instance "53 Thoughts You Have When Watching Home Alone For The 100th Time", "18 Photos That Will Make You Breathe Easily", and like.. "34 Photos that prove Zayn Malik is infact, God'. And.. a few days ago I came upon this article..

20 Inspiring Films To Watch Before You Turn 30

These all have important life lessons. Like, definitely trust that random hot guy who looks like Ethan Hawke. 

And I'm totally hooked by the #4

4. Before Sunrise (1995)

20 Inspiring Films To Watch Before You Turn 30
We all have that fantasy of traveling abroad and meeting a dashing stranger on a train, right? Well, that actually happens in Before Sunrise. It’s a movie that proves you should take every opportunity that comes your way, especially if that opportunity involves a day with Ethan Hawke. It also shows that you can meet someone when you’re least expecting it, and actually learn something from them. (Even if you don’t see them again for years afterward.)

 And.. before I knew it, I've watched all 3 movies in less than 6 hours straight.
Started with Before Sunrise, Before Sunset in the middle, and ended with Before Midnight.

FIrst of all. Let me be clear. WHO DOENST HAVE THAT FANTASY OF TRAVELLING ABROAD AND MEETING A HOT (WELL AT LEAST ATTRACTIVE) STRANGER? LIKE, really? It doesn't have to be a on train, on bench would be nice too.

like really? Siapa yang ga pernah berfantasi gitu? You make up this whole scenario inyour head and you started to imagine it and going through every scene until you end up sleeping whilst hoping that it continues on to ur dreams.  It's nice really. To have the chance to feel that excitement. Kadang emang gw suka gila juga, suka kepngen gitu tengah malem ngobrol sama orang yang gw gakenal sama sekali and to just talk about life. Lo ga perlu tau background gw, let's just talk. Sometimes it felt nice aja, you don't really have to worry of what they're going to think of you, if they don't like it than they just can stop talking to you and be done with it. Picture having that kind of conversation with ur firend, I hope sometimes we could never say what really want to say because the fear having them judging us and might actually want to cut us out of their lives, or better yet keep having us in their lifes but in a painfully awkward situation relationship.

Okay back to the main story. Before Sunrise.
Just the same as lost in translation, this movie isn't for anyone.
Ga semua orang bisa tahan nonton film that lasts for 1 and half hour dan isinya cuman orang ngomong aja. Ngomon doang. Two characters to each other. No action, no conflict, no drama, nada. Just two people having conversations. Sounds boring ya? TO me it's not.
Menurut gw, film ini membangkitkan fantasi semua orang. Siapa yang ga berangan2 dan kepengen ngerasain hal yang sama kayak yang dialami oleh Jessie and Celine ini? Terutama bagi mereka yang emang lagi di negara lain. Or maybe Europe itself (the movie sets in Vienna)

Ceritanya di mulai dengan simple. dengan senyuman, and it ended quite bitter.
Scenenya lagi di kereta, there's this german couple who argued with each other. And then sat right across them is Celine. She felt disturbed so she move sits and happens to sit across Jesse. Who clearly doesn't even understand what the hell those German couple fought about. It all started when Jesse asks Celine

"Do you have any idea what they are arguing about?"


And dari situ they're story started. SUmpah gw nontonnya sendiri sebenerya gemes sih. Like reliiii. 
Hampir 70% dari pengambilan gambar itu adalah mengikuti karakter Celine dan Jesse jalan sambil ngobrol. Kurang lebih gambarannya seperti ini..




Haduh pokoknya this movie is really something to talk about.
Jesse is on his way to Vienna karena harus catch a plane.. But since he didn;t have enough  money for a hotel he plan on just wanderin throught the streets of Vienna until the morning after.. (karena flightnya baru kayka bsk siang gitu).. and on the other hand,  Celine is on her way to go home to Paris. And.. sesampainya the train stopped in Vienna (for a few minutes)  and after a few moments of talking Jesse ini ngajakin Celine untuk turun and explore Vienna with him. Because he's crazy and he likes talking to her. ANd of course.. Celinenya mau. (Yaiyalah kalau bentukannya kayak Ethan Hawke.. Kalau ga seattractive itu .. kayaknya dia belum tentu mau turun HAHA.


Before Sunrise  takes us into their journey of one (not really whole) day of exploring Vienna until the sunrise. Really, it's a heart wrenching thing for me. Karena since gw orang yang suka khayal dan suka yang loveydovey beginian tentu gw kepengen juga. Tapi not really for now since I have a boyfriend HAHA but to be able just to talk with someone sounds pretty nice.

Jadi. Buat kalian2 yang suka ngekhayal, suka ngarep, suka berimajinasi, suka kebanyakan nonton drama, kebanyakan nonton film, kebanyakan baca buku, mending coba deh nonton film ini. It might be boring to some people but if you really look into it, it;s pretty much realistic in some parts. I know I would take that chance like Celine did. And sometimes when ur with a stranger.. kadang you get the urge to talk about something serious and all. (or maybe is it just me?) Like what Jesse and Celine talked about in the movie. Love, Family, Feminism, etc.  So i kinda see it that they actually fell in love with each other throughout their long talks. JUST SO FRIGGIN ROMANTIC. And of course it has to set in one of the most beautiful city in the world, and in fact, in Europe.

Mungkin kalo kejadiannya di Indonesia kita mikir 2x kali ya? Well mengingat dengan sekarang kejahataan makin tinggi dan motifnya makin beraneka ragam sometimes it's jst hard to believe that you would get hit on by strangers on public places. Well not really hit on sih.. more like.. "di samperin" kali ya..

By the way, this movie actually has 2 sequels. Before Sunset and Before Midnight. So mendingan menurut gw kalau mau nonton langsung aja tonton 3 sekaligus TEEHEE


And probably.. I would try and think of deciding whether I would write another review for each "Before Sunset" and "Before Midnight" or not :p
