Binge Movie Aftertaste – Before Series Retrospective w/ Matthew Goudreau and Adam Bunch: Before Sunset (2004)
By the time Before Sunset came out in 2004, Ethan Hawke was a respected Oscar nominated actor, and Richard Linklater had finally made what can be called a blockbuster hit with 2001’s School of Rock. So why would they go back to the independent well with a sequel to their little 1995 hit Before Sunrise? Because Julie Delpy came calling armed with 40-50 pages of dialogue about where Jesse and Celine ended up nine years after their initial walk through Vienna. After agreeing that this was a good place to continue from, Hawke and Linklater came onboard and it didn’t take too long for them to finish the sequel we didn’t know we wanted.
Join Adam, Matt, and I as we critique Jesse and Celine touring Paris, and answer whether Before Sunset lives up to what its predecessor set up. As well as whether Adam ended up marrying the woman he took to The Human Stain on their first date.
Be sure to come back on Friday as we finish our Before series with Adam’s first viewing of Before Midnight.
