BEFORE MIDNIGHT (2013) & Change The Prestige
-
- TV & Film
The franchise concludes as we return to Jesse and Céline’s relationship after another 9-year hiatus. We talk a little bit about how the film could have made more sense, but a lot about the beauty of Linklater’s film-making and the way that he draws out the links with the other films.

Footnotes
Firstly, here are a couple of articles about a fourth film (which we hope doesn’t happen). On meta-cinema again, this is a good reference work. Here’s a refresher on the Minotaur, to add to our discussion of mythology. And finally, here’s Walter Lassally’s IMDB page (the newspaper articles linked to are great).
