“We meet Jesse and Celine nine years on in Greece. Almost two decades have passed since their first meeting on that train bound for Vienna. Before the clock strikes midnight, we will again become part of their story.” The third act of the Ballad of Jesse and Celine,
Before Midnight, will also premiere at Sundance. I’m afraid it’ll be hard to top the emotional resonance of
Before Sunset (#8), but if Linklater, Hawke, and Delpy want to give these characters a third act, I’ll give it a go.
