Before Midnight (2013)
Directed by Richard
Linklater this sequel once again stars Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy.
Nine years after the last film we catch up with our duo to find out
if they really did get together this time and if so how the
relationship is going.
Like it's predecessors
this film is about romance but this time more about the intersection
between romance and the details of real life which adds a level of
maturity that was missing slightly from the previous films. The
script strays slightly from the pattern of it's predecessors in the
first third but once it gets back into the groove of a conversation
between the two main characters it is a great watch. Location is
still a relevant part of the film but this is less of a city film and
more just Greece in general. There is one great scene in the car at
the start of the film that is a single continuous take that is really
impressive.
4/5
