Every Rom Com 16: Before Sunset

from Every Rom Com · host Jennifer Howell

This week on Every Rom Com, we continue our discussion of the “Before” trilogy with 2004’s “Before Sunset.” We’ll talk about the making of the film and go in-depth on the careers of multi-talented creators Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy. We’ll also explore some of the fundamental questions that Jesse and Celine discuss in the movie - what’s the nature of time, memory, and desire? Do people change or do we fundamentally stay the same? Is our life dominated by fate or free will, and how rare are soulmates? All this and we’ll also talk about the film’s romantic Parisian locations, as well as our own Paris travel recommendations! Join us for this deep dive into one of our most favorite films yet! 0:00-9:27 Introduction, Memorable Songs/Music 9:27-15:21 Trailer, Basic Info 15:21-33:21 In-Depth Ethan Hawke, Julie Delpy 33:21-37:31 General Impressions of the Movie 37:31-50:00 Opening Shots of the Movie, Shakespeare & Company Bookstore, Book Signing Scene, The Nature of Fiction, The Nature of Time https://shakespeareandcompany.com/ https://www.theguardian.com/film/2019/nov/04/julie-delpy-ethan-hawke-how-we-made-before-sunrise-trilogy-sunset-midnight https://www.circeinstitute.org/blog/reader-thomas-wolfe 50:00-1:01:39 Walking and Catching Up, The Big Question: Did Celine and Jesse Show Up 6 Months After “Sunrise”?, Jesse’s Novel, Is the World Doomed or Getting Better? 1:01:39-1:20:36 In the Cafe, Growing Intimacy, Celine’s Trip to Warsaw, Having a Quiet Mind in an Unquiet World, Our Social Media Experiences, The Nature of Desire, Location: Promenade Plantee https://www.lepurecafe.fr https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2017/jun/07/paris-promenade-plantee-free-elevated-park-walkway-bastille-bois-de-vincennes 1:20:36 SPOILERS BEGIN 1:20:36-1:32:14 The Nature of Memory, Do People Change or Do We Stay the Same? 1:32:14-1:54:00 The Boat Ride, Different Types of Boat Rides on the Seine, The Lighting, Celine’s Speech: People are Irreplaceable, Fate vs. Free Will, Soulmates, Best Self vs. Honest Self, Marriage with Kids https://www.canauxrama.com/en/ https://www.batobus.com/en/homepage https://www.vedettesdupontneuf.com/home/ 1:54:0...
