Love Before Midnight is a romance film directed by Richard Linklater and starring Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpe, and is the third in the Love In trilogy. The film was released in the United States on June 14, 2013.
The interval between these trilogies is up to nine years between each of them, and the male and female protagonists of the film have also become much more vicissitudes over time. If "Love Before Dawn Breaks" is a beautiful encounter, then "Love at Dusk and Sunset" is a romantic reunion, and "Love Before Midnight" is a reflection of real life.
The film tells the trivial things that happen after the male and female protagonists enter marriage, the details of life and the tribulations become the focus of the conversation, and the disagreement will also become the fuse of the quarrel.
Love in the third part of the trilogy and the first two parts of the shooting method is the same, the first two are several long shots in the male and female protagonists long dialogue throughout, this part adds a multi-person dialogue scene, it seems more lifelike, but also more realistic sense of life.
Middle-aged Jesse and Selena married, and had two daughters, after the age of love, they still have endless topics, of course, not only love, more is the triviality of life, they are each other's spiritual partners, but also life partners, youth love is mostly endless romance and passion, middle-aged love should be a sentence "plain is true."
They continue to have an overwhelming dialogue, you say a word to me, gushing, but unlike the past, the dialogue is obviously more trivial problems in life, there are quarrels and arguments, and even the beautiful love will eventually turn from a fairy tale to reality at a certain time. On this trip to Greece invited by friends, they talked to each other about various topics as usual, but the difference was more of the trivial things of life in marriage, some laughing, some cute mouths, and some thinking about reality.
It is said that marriage is the graveyard of love, love is just the passion of youth and madness, which will eventually be swallowed up by life, but love is like this, there is sweetness, there will be quarrels, tolerance, accommodation, trust, understanding, tolerance, responsibility. Love is not only sweet, especially after marriage and children, but also more chai rice oil salt sauce vinegar tea.
People are an independent individual, in the face of real-life problems will have different opinions, of course, will stand in their own positions to argue and speculate, Jesse has been because of the failure to accompany his son to grow up and deeply remorseful, he wants to make up for the past debt to his son, hope that Selina and her daughter can move to the United States together, live with their son, but Selina wants to stay in Paris to continue to do their favorite work, so the two have a dispute, there is a contradiction.
Selena complains that Jesse has neglected to take care of her daughters because she is only busy with her own business, and most of them are taking care of their lives, so the two talk about the big and small trifles in life, accusing and complaining to each other.
This is the indispensable reality in love, quarrels and contradictions are inevitable in love, communication is particularly important, after the hotel quarrel, Selena slammed the door out, but she came back, this is actually she is giving both sides a step down, and after the last big quarrel, Jesse took the opportunity to talk to Selena as a stranger, and tried his best to smile only for Bo Hongyan, which is also a concession he made for each other,
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > love is not who bows down or gives in is inferior, on the contrary, true love is mutual understanding, mutual tolerance, mutual concessions, clever communication is the key to solving the problem, as the film says: this is true love, real life, imperfect, but real. </h1>
