Before Sunrise 

Directed by Richard Linklater 

Written by Richard Linklater, Kim Krizan

Starring Ethan Hawke, Julie Delpy

Released January 19th 1995 at the Sundance Film Festival 

Published January 18th, 1995

On a train traveling through Europe, two twenty-somethings meet by chance and spend one romantic night in Vienna together. Jesse (Ethan Hawke) is an American who came to Europe to see his girlfriend and ends up heartbroken and wandering. Celine (Julie Delpy) is a French college student headed home from Budapest after visiting relatives.

Jesse and Celine bond over their mutual distaste with a couple loudly fighting loudly in indecipherable German. They decide to hang out together in the dining car and what begins as a time-killing conversation becomes a series of smart, witty exchanges and real honest romance. Jesse has to get off in Vienna to catch a plane the next morning, she is supposed to just go straight home but Jesse's charm tempts her enough to jump off the train for one romantic night in Vienna.
