impossible to watch without entertain the ghost of richard linklater ( before sunrise or before sunset ) . indeed delpy clearly have the aesthetic and subject material and script content in her own mind a well . it be a great testament to her that this be an idiosyncratic and coherent and self contain rom com in the metropolitan tradition of annie hall . it help that she persuade adam goldberg to play her lover . he a fine actor ( look no further than linklater own dazed and confuse and no less ) but here he careful not to overplay the jewish weltschmerz . he attentive to the chief protagonist be the relationship that the two principal have and not each of them individually . delpy also do a fine job give that she clearly shuttle between different end of the camera not too kooky . the ensemble cast be well take without reserve and all create strike but not overpower character along the way . the film be shoot largely hand hold and jump through the episode with an energy that go with the purport watershed age of jack and marion ( theyre meant to be 35 ) . i like it very much . 7 . 5/10 .
