讲完了Before Sunrise 《爱在黎明破晓前》、Before Sunset《爱在日落黄昏时》这次要讲的肯定就是Before
Midnight《爱在午夜降临前》。一般来说续作都是不如之前的好,这一部的感觉一样。但是可能也是跟内容有关。第一部讲述的是年轻人的邂逅,第二部是失联恋人的久别重逢,第三部是中年人的世俗生活。
有人说现在电影电视的主角都是年轻人。年轻好啊,谁不喜欢年轻啊。打开手机电视,看看一张张年轻漂亮的脸庞,讲讲他们的爱情,他们的理想。而中年人呢,中年发福,胶原蛋白流失,没了爱情,没有理想,有的只是房贷,车贷,领导的压榨,下属的嗷嗷待哺。现代人生活压力那么大,伺候完客户又要应付领导,应付完领导又要安抚下属,好不容易下班回到家谁还想看这些油腻的中年人和他们的那点子事。
女主事业遇到瓶颈,要考虑要不要换一个工作。男主角说第一本书让他们重遇,第二本书让他们换了房贷,想着怎么才能获得创作灵感。女主抱怨自己从一个自己写歌的才女变成了一个家庭主妇。男主头痛怎么处理和前妻所生的儿子的关系,要不要去美国定居。影片中两个人去机场送儿子回美国,回来途中两人闲聊,杰西无意中知道儿子都已经恋爱了,这才发现原来自己也已经41岁了。
