southern boy, you brighten my northern sky

o que eu gosto na dupla Before Sunrise e Before Sunset são os 10 anos que existem pelo meio. gosto das histórias que crescem e evoluem e se adensam e intensificam. gosto de histórias inacabadas, tanto quanto elas permitem a ilusão de imaginar mais além. ainda hoje me custa sempre a crer quando o mundo avança sem mim, e eu não sei como sair do lugar. o que também gosto nestes filmes é que me fazem sempre pensar, por vias travessas, na melhor frase que o cinema já viu - Here's looking at you, kid!. é que dentro desses 10 anos que separam a Julie Delpy e o Ethan Hawke do seu reencontro, há lugar para uma promessa de história por escrever: maybe one day we'll have Paris. qualquer coisa que o Nick Drake teria dito assim:


Time has told me
You're a rare rare find
A troubled cure
For a troubled mind.

And time has told me
Not to ask for more
Someday our ocean
Will find its shore.

So I`ll leave the ways that are making me be
What I really don't want to be
Leave the ways that are making me love
What I really don't want to love.

Time has told me
You came with the dawn
A soul with no footprint
A rose with no thorn.

Your tears they tell me
There's really no way
Of ending your troubles
With things you can say.

And time will tell you
To stay by my side
To keep on trying
'til there's no more to hide.

So leave the ways that are making you be
What you really don't want to be
Leave the ways that are making you love
What you really don't want to love.

Time has told me
You're a rare rare find
For some day our ocean
Will find its shore.
