Before Sunrise
Most romance movies depict men trying to steal a girl's heart by smooth talks, flowers, fancy cars, and pickup lines. However, this movie affords a romantic story to the audience by giving the picture of the spontaneity of youth, how one can fall in love with another in one night. The story begins with Jesse (Ethan Hawke) meeting Celine (Julie Delpy) on the train. Jesse is a young American who's traveling around Europe, while Celine is a student from Paris. From this, they start traveling the city together in one night. The dialogue built throughout the story is the strength of the scriptwriters Before Sunrise, Richard Linklater, and Kim Krizan, how the film can be filled with dialogue that is not boring for the audience.
Never Been Kissed
The film, which was released in 1999, is a super sweet romantic comedy film with a storyline that is very relatable to high school life. The beautiful Drew Barrymore was chosen as the main character named Josie Geller, an editor at a famous newspaper who was asked to disguise herself as a high school student to get some news. One thing led to another that Josie happens to end up in a super twisted circumstance when she falls for her dreamy English teacher, Sam Coulson, played by Michael Vartan.
