The cornerstone of director Richard Linklater’s career‑long exploration of cinematic time, this celebrated three-part romance captures a relationship as it begins, begins again, deepens, and strains over the course of almost two decades. Chronicling the love of Celine (Julie Delpy) and Jesse (Ethan Hawke), from their first meeting as idealistic twentysomethings to the disillusionment they face together in middle age, The Before Trilogy also serves as a document of a boundary-pushing and extraordinarily intimate collaboration between director and actors, as Delpy and Hawke imbue their characters with a sense of lived-in experience, and age on-screen along with them. Attuned to the sweeping grandeur of time’s passage as well as the evanescence of individual moments, the Before films chart the progress of romantic destiny as it navigates the vicissitudes of ordinary life.

The charm of Before Sunrise—the midsummer enchantment—never feels forced; it steals up and wins you. A true romance. – The New Yorker

At the risk of overhyping 80 minutes of intimate real-time, Before Sunset is the soul of generosity, a beautifully vibrant and big-spirited film. – Time Out

‘Before Midnight’ has all the best qualities of ‘Sunrise’ and ‘Sunset’ (a love of conversational dialogue, long takes that value the joy of performance and interaction, gorgeous European locations), yet it is a grander and more complicated achievement. – Flavorwire
