2 Days in Paris is a funny and thrilling romance comedy written, directed, and starring Julie Delpy. It should not be confused with One Night in Paris. Before Sunrise and Before Sunset is a romance novel by Richard Linklater, starring both Delpy and Ethan Hawke. Here, she is starring alongside Adam Goldberg in a film that is similar to the Linklater films and is about a young New York couple who spend two days in Paris.

Story Analysis
Before Sunrise and Before Sunset star Julie Delpy seems to have put a lot of herself into this yesmovies film. Not only does she play a role that might resemble her in real life, but her real-life parents also play her film parents. He not only directed the film but also wrote the story, cut it, produced it, and even composed the music for it. Perhaps the story is also based on her real-life experiences, as there are indications that her character has a visual impairment, which is similar to what she sees in real life.
Marion (Julie Diply) is a French photographer, and Jack (Adam Goldberg) is an American interior designer. They live in New York and are traveling Europe, trying to get back together. When Jack gets a stomach bug during a trip to Venice, he has better plans for a two-day trip to Paris. After that, Marion’s parents, who don’t speak English, and Jack, who doesn’t understand French, get into some awkward situations. Furthermore, Jack meets Marion’s ex-lovers all over Paris, which makes him even more suspicious of her cheating ways.
Funny and Exciting
Even though the story itself may not sound that interesting because it follows the rules, it is very funny and exciting because it shows how incompatible a couple’s relationship can be. The difference in culture between the French and Americans gives rise to some hilarious linguistic jokes. It helps if you don’t know French because you can understand how frustrated Jack is because he doesn’t know the language. The film is mostly a conversational comedy with some cleverly written lines. It does not get slapped at any point.
Acting
Ms. Delpy and Mr. Goldberg’s acting is so natural and effective that it doesn’t look like they’re acting at all; it looks like they’re living their parts right in front of our eyes. As they break each other apart, “2 Days in Paris” becomes a study on how it’s impossible to know someone’s true nature, even if you live with them. The movie is both bold and scary. It doesn’t seem likely that Marion or Jack will ever look at each other with teary eyes and say, “We’ll always have Paris.”
Final Words
2 Days In Paris is a funny, intelligent, and thoughtful romantic comedy that’s a breath of fresh air in a time when the name of the genre tends to terrify men. It’s too bad that director Delpy has tied his film so closely to Before Sunrise and Before Sunset, two of the best English-language favorites of the last twenty or so years. It is not as good as those movies. But it’s still very attractive
