Before Midnight

the before trilogy is my absolute favorite to ever exist. and what i love most about it is since i watched the first one, i knew i should space out the time between when i would watch the next one. then i watched before sunrise, and somehow i loved it even more. about a year later, tonight i thought i was ready to before midnight. and i was absolutely correct. richard linklater manages to capture human relationship in the purest most raw way possible. meanwhile it is very passionate and loving, he also shows all the anger and frustration that comes with human relationships. in all of the “before” movies, there’s “nothing” really happening. it’s just two people taking about life and themselves and that’s it. and that’s what’s most amazing about these films, it captivates you so much, makes you laugh, cry and feel angry, yet it’s just a couple living.
