Deux Jours a Paris

I just came back from watching this new film with Julie Delpy. I liked it a lot! But, then again, I'm really getting into French films a lot. It was basically a romantic comedy about a girl who has committment issues and a guy who has all kinds of issues. They have been dating for 2 years, and just come back from a romantic holiday in Venice. They live in NY, but stop in Paris for 2 days before heading back to the States. In Paris, he starts to see her crazy side and feels like he doesn't really know her. She, sensing that she might be haing real feelings for him is waiting for the bottom to drop out like it always does.

The theater was laughing throughout the whole movie! But I sense it had something to do with the french subtitles that I didn't quite pick up. Anyway, it's one of those movies I need to watch again, as I usually pick up new things everytime I watch a movie.

I walked back to my apartment from the theater, and I just really felt appreciative of my time here. As my time here draws to a close, I feel so much more mature. So grown-up. I envy people who are living in France for real, and only hope that my time gets here fast enough and that I can make it happen. I've met some great people here who actually live in Paris, so hopefully I can keep in touch (sometimes, it's hard!). I do miss the US though. I'm not gonna front. But I'd be doing myself a disservice if I didn't pursue this one aspect of my life. Sometimes, when listening to french I feel so intimidated and like I have so far to go in terms of really learning the language. But I know in time, it will come.
