Everything gets better with maturity.

Jesse is a writer who has lived with Céline for nine years. Together they are parents to two daughters, and the family is spending the summer on vacation in Greece. Céline is considering a job with the government, while Jesse keeps writing. But Jesse is troubled by a worry he can't shake: he has not managed to maintain a stable relationship with Hank, his teenage son, who lives with his mother, Jesse's ex-wife, in Chicago. Over these first few days, conversations between the adults, set against the Greek landscape, reveal the tensions building in the couple and in the family they have formed.

Trivia about Before Midnight

Filming began in August 2012 and took place entirely along the Peloponnese coast in southern Greece, including the Kardamyli house once owned by writer Patrick Leigh Fermor.

According to Linklater, after ten weeks of writing and rehearsals, the film was shot in 15 days on a budget of less than 3 million dollars.

The film grossed around 23 million dollars worldwide and is the highest-grossing entry in the trilogy.

The critics at The A.V. Club named the fight the best scene of the year in their list of favorites.

Although the dialogue sounds natural, every scene was rehearsed extensively, strictly followed the script and included no improvisation.

The crew shot the scene in a single 13-minute continuous take, a decision that Linklater, Delpy and Hawke linked to the goal of drawing audiences into lives already in progress.

The screenplay earned an Oscar nomination for Best Adapted Screenplay, a recognition shared by Richard Linklater, Julie Delpy and Ethan Hawke.

The film won the Boston Online Film Critics Association award for Best Screenplay in 2013, during a awards season that also brought nominations from the Chicago critics and the Golden Globes.

Quotes by Before Midnight

I remember thinking: this is the natural human state - always a little dissatisfied, perpetually discontented, you know?
Natalia: Like sunlight, sunset, we appear, we disappear. We are so important to some, but we are just passing through.
