Before Midnight

Another one from Richard Linklater.

I am a fan of two of his other films, Before Sunrise (1995) and Before Sunset (2004). Now, another nine years after, another installment.

The sweetest

I read several spoilers. No thanks to some blogs raving about their Sundance movie screening, and which, I've managed to click and read. Just the same, I am excited to watch the film in entirety. I've always been a fan of Linklater since I've watched the first installment of this saga. I even downloaded some of his works (Tape and Waking Life, which by the way had a short scene with Celine and Jesse).

Out of the miry depths of the fickle heart, the movie captivates. Engages. Involves. I watched immediately thereafter the second installment (because I watched the 1995 film in mid-2000's. Which was gr-ool.)

Here's my takeaway from the second movie: click here.

It'll be awesome if by some form of miracle, indie movies are shown in theaters. I can't wait.


Celine: So, I want to try something.
Jesse: What?
Celine: [hugs him] I want to see if you stay together or if you dissolve into molecules.
Jesse: How'm I doing?
Celine: Still here.
Jesse: Good, I like being here.

I am such a sap.
