Top 50 Movie Endings of All Time
 July 2006: FilmCritic has
put together a list of the
Top 50 Movie Endings of All Time.
Before Sunset is at number 20: "Cooler than pre-Scientology Isaac Hayes in
Antarctica eating popsicles and drinking iced coffee, Julie Delpy dances and
sings Nina Simone in front of Ethan Hawke and croons, sexy as they come, "Baby,
you're gonna miss that plane". Delpy has never been given enough time on screen
to fully capture audience appeal, but in this moment, she has it over any hip
chick this side of Santa Monica." |
 Two
Days
June 2006: Julie Delpy is branching out. Not content with directing
shorts and grabbing an Oscar nomination for her work co-writing Before Sunset
with Ethan Hawke and Richard Linklater, she's now written and will direct a
romantic comedy. Two Days (Deux Jours) will star Delpy and Adam Goldberg and
follows the misadventures of a couple when they visit Delpy's Parisian home. The
film just went into production in Paris and will shoot for a month. Delpy hopes
to have it finished in time for a debut at either Sundance or Berlin in 2007.

About the project
Imagining
Ourselves reaches out to a new generation of women - the one billion women
between the ages of 20 and 40 - answering the question "What defines your
generation?" Through an online exhibit, a series of global gatherings, and a new
book, Imagining Ourselves provides resources and opportunities for women to
create change in their lives, in their communities, and in their world. We draw
upon the thoughts of young women worldwide to reveal a generation of women
poised to take the reigns of global leadership like no other generation in
history - a generation of women who believe that anything is possible for young
women today. The goals of Imagining Ourselves are to increase young women in leadership
positions, to connect our esteemed partners (such as the Global Fund for Women
and the World YWCA) to a broad audience, and to increase international community
among this first global generation of women. The magic happens when young women
are able to form connections across international boundaries and use those
connections to improve each other's lives.
