Just finished watching Before Midnight again, the second time I’ve ever seen it, for the special three-part podcast Grierson and I are doing. There are times that these movies seem beamed directly from my brain, and I think what might be most brilliant and wonderful about them is that I suspect everybody who has seen them feels the exact same way.

gardens, past shops, into a cafe, out of the cafe, toward the courtyard
where she has the flat she has lived in for four years. And it is
getting later, and the time for his flight is approaching, just as he
had to catch the train in Vienna. But what is free will for, if not to
defy our plans?
