Who's in It: Aaron Eckhart, Helena Bonham Carter
The Basics: A married man and a married woman — not married to each other — meet at a wedding and do "it." You'd think they'd just get it over with and go about their business, but no. They have to share meaningful words and angst, and then you find out they used to be lovers long ago, too. But by that point, you've already put your fingers in your ears to make the yappy-yap-yapping stop.
What's the Deal? What's up, adulterers? Do y'all really have this much to say to each other when you're hooking up? Do you actually spend entire nights talking and talking and talking about your pasts and your precious [insert baby voice] widdle feewings? Because if you do, no wonder they call them one-night stands.
My Favorite Part: When one the members of the wedding party almost busts up their impending sex-a-thon with a heavy dose of guilt. As in: "Tell [your really hot girlfriend who's waiting at home for you] I said hi!"
Another Annoying Thing: The entire movie is in split screen. Get it? They're together, but they're alone? Split screen is for when Carrie White kills all the kids at the prom and for Rock Hudson and Doris Day taking separate bubble baths. And that's it.
Before Sunrise Is Not So Awesome That It Needs a Lot of Copiers Coming Around and Remaking It: That's all I wanted to say, really.
