As a just Preface it should be noted that the acquaintance with the incredible story of Jesse and Celine should start in the correct chronological order of the paintings of Richard Linklater. Thus, the "Before midnight" to remain in the much misunderstood story of a couple over 40 if you still decide to start with this part. With other hand, as it seemed to me, we have a very correct and verified the point of view of expectations, the end of the trilogy. Although, bullet point re not set it is very interesting to see the continuation after nine years, and more then nine — how much is enough desire in the Director implementers of the two title roles.
Time for everyone is on equal footing, and we see Jesse and Celine held a man and a woman a little over forty. Already in the usual manner, they do not hesitate to emphasize the frailty of life, so we can say — themselves taunt age, changes in their bodies, prejudices. How is not difficult to guess, the romantic component of the carefree student of love has gone when emphasis on the routine of married life. "Before midnight," as in previous parts, not hesitate stereotypes, says unpopular topics the mouth of his characters. Parenting, the relentless March of age, career ambitions and the family, the cooling of feelings, suspicion, care, routine in personal life. Movie characters do not share deepest secrets — is a simple, often truths, to Express that in real life you usually need an enviable determination.
The events of the film in fully unfold in Greece, and more specifically, on the South of the Peloponnesian Peninsula. Although the characters themselves make fun of modern communication technologies, in particularly on Scype, Facebook, on an hour and a half if I recent past. Breakfast of Greek salad and olives on fresh air, with views of the picturesque lagoon. Communication for table with new friends, creative people, discussion of literary works. Walking through the city and, of course, dinner on the sunset coast. Emotions from view individual scenes can be compared with the vacation to the sea.
Ethan hawke and Julie Delpy with each stage is a more harmonious look in played roles. In the second half of the film, when the intensity of what is happening is escalating, they seem to successfully improvise more than relentlessly follow the letter of the script (written by them, in particular). Why are only the scenes without gluing length in 3-4 minutes. In many ways this creates a sense of integrity of what is happening, although the third movie was, perhaps, not so inspiring. At this time, after viewing the remains the more reason for rethinking some moments of life, but and only positive emotions also less.
