Summer Talk: Before Midnight

Summer Talk: Before Midnight

Free and open to the public!

We'll be giving away free copies of the new issue of Film Comment magazine with a feature on Before Midnight. We'll also be selling copies of the January/February 1995 issue with a feature on Before Sunrise and the July/August 2006 issue with an interview with Linklater about A Scanner Darkly.

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.

In a conversation moderated by Phillip Lopate, Richard Linklater, Julie Delpy and Ethan Hawke will discuss their new film as well as their nearly 20-year collaboration that now spans three features.

This Summer Talk is free and open to the public. Tickets will be available to the general public at the Elinor Bunin Munroe Film Center box office beginning one hour before the start of the event, on a space available basis.
