Directed by Richard Linklater
Nine years later, Jesse travels across Europe giving readings from a book he wrote about the night he spent in Vienna with Celine. After his reading in Paris, Celine finds him, and they spend part of the day together before Jesse has to again leave for a flight. They are both in relationships now, and Jesse has a son, but as their strong feelings for each other start to return, both confess a longing for more.

And then... there's this look that comes across his face. Richard Linklater doesn't draw any attention to it, and it's so brief that you might miss it. But it's a…

And my wife is sitting there looking at me, and I feel like I'm a million miles from her,…
WE HAD SEX TWICE YOU IDIOT
Hey wtf I believe in love now
I guess when you're young you just believe there'll be many people you connect with. Later in life you realize it only happens a few times.
