before next year

This is happening.  The Before Trilogy is finally coming out on blu ray, next February, as a Criterion collection.  Whenever people ask me what my favorite movie is, I always say Before Sunrise/Before Sunset or the Lord of the Ring trilogy.  If someone put a gun to my head and make me choose just one (I am not sure why they would do that unless they are gangsters who are really opinionated about cinema...), I would probably have to say Before Sunset.  I really believe these Before movies are responsible for making me a romantic but not in a lovey-dovey way.  Instead they made me believe in true love but also that true love does not have to be permanent.   It can be a spark that you once knew, and then it just becomes a memory for the rest of your life.  But really what are we but a jigsaw puzzle of memories?
