  Wow it’s like the entire Before trilogy all in a single film!

  This was beautiful. And tragic but in an emotionally refreshing, rather than devastating, way. Meticulously plotted and written to hit you where it hurts.  And the COLOR GRADING! I’m no expert but it stood out.

  Love really does seem to be about timing. It’s true in all the best movies about love, and in my own life too. Poor and mismatched timing, the anti-Cupid of us all. 

  Notes of: When Harry Met Sally (I only now note the emphasis on “WHEN”), immigrant identity, Before trilogy
