  • Richard Linklater, Julie Delpy, and Ethan Hawke discuss dialogue-heavy films and the challenge of structuring a story about the development of a relationship. Phillip Lopate moderates this conversation as part of Film Society of Lincoln Center's Summer Talks series. Sponsored by HBO®.
    About the film:
    Nine years after we last saw Celine and Jesse (Julie Delpy and Ethan Hawke), the couple are together in Greece. Richard Linklater's latest collaboration with Hawke and Delpy picks up the story that began nearly two decades ago in Before Sunrise (1995) and then continued with Before Sunset (2004).
    In the new film, Before Midnight, Celine and Jesse are now in their 40s and grappling with the past, present and future of their relationship.

      you're not alone at all. I think dialogue is key in many films. You can have a really good plot, but if you don't have character then it's boring and you're not into it. You can have all character and no plot and it still be great

    I find it a bit rude that Hawk and Linklater don't allow Delpy to finish her sentences. Yet Delpy never interrupts them. I wish they would let her talk because her character is central to the story.

      @sieteocho Рік тому +2

      Julie's character is not central to the story. This is what Celine literally says in "Before Sunrise":
      "I really believe that if there’s any kind of god, he wouldn’t be in any one of us - not you, not me - but just this space in between. If there’s some magic in this world, it must be in the attempt of understanding someone else, sharing something, even if it’s almost impossible to succeed. But who cares - the answer must be in the attempt. "
      The Before Trilogy is not about Celine or Jesse. It's about the space in between them.

      @@sieteocho the fact that Celine came up with that magnificent line only proves my point, no? Btw Delpy developed a lot of Celine’s dialogue. Linklater even said that “Sunrise” was inspired by a woman he encountered in Philly. Thank you reminding me of that quote, I’m going to type out and frame it.

      @@Furtivo95 Yes it disproves your point, and it should be obvious that Jesse and Celine are equals.
      Julie Delpy was an active member of the screenwriting team from the second movie onwards, and probably that line was not from her.

    Ethan Hawke sexualizing Julie Delpy with those jokes wasn't really necessary. And you can see Julie being put in the awkward situation of having to laugh even though she didn't appreciate it, otherwise she'd be seen as too stuck up. Like Ethan saying the "bimbie" version is her real self, and asking her to dance suggestively in front of everyone. People can say it's harmless. I'm just saying it's annoying and cringe to watch.

    • @sieteocho
      @sieteocho Рік тому

      First, the sexualisation of Julie Delpy is necessary. I've watched the first 2 films and Julie Delpy being a sexual object of desire for Ethan Hawke was not the main ingredient of the Before series - the intellectual conversation was always going to be the main course - but the movie would not have worked without Julie Delpy being a sexy female. I haven't watched Before Midnight but I can imagine that when Julie Delpy becomes less sexy the dynamic of the relationship will change.
      Second, it was mentioned in another clip that the entire intention was for Celine to be more than a one dimensional character, so the notion that Celine is a bimbo is just not even worth considering.
      Third, the Nina Simone scene was brought up as an example of the characters being allowed to act. Not about Julie being sexy. In fact, it goes back to how the conversation is the essential part of the plot. Celine is trying to seduce Jesse before boarding the plane and isn't even trying to be subtle about it.
      And in general there are a lot of people talking about how Julie is not being allowed to speak, but they're not actually trying to even follow this conversation in the first place. The before trilogy is anti-reductionist but these guys are adamant that they want to reduce this entire panel discussion to "the guys aren't letting Julie speak".
