2013

Direction:
Richard Linklater

Storyline:
This three-part romance captures a relationship as it begins, restarts, deepens, and stretches over the course of nearly two decades.

Opinion:
The Before trilogy is the document of a boundary-breaking and extraordinarily intimate collaboration between director and actors, in which Delpy and Hawke imbue their characters with a sense of lived experience and age with them on screen. The Before films are attuned to both the grandeur of passing time and the transience of individual moments, charting the evolution of a romantic destiny as it moves through the vicissitudes of ordinary life.

Direction:
Ari Folman

Storyline:
An aging and unemployed actress takes one last job, but the consequences of her decision affect her in ways she hadn’t considered.

Opinion:
A film that is very much on the meta level and is becoming more and more topical these days in terms of subject matter. I would recommend that you don’t even watch the trailer, but start with the film right away. It is definitely a roller coaster of emotions for me.
