Greece Investment Immigration focuses on life in Greece: "Before Midnight" is the moving conclusion to the cinematic classics "Before Sunrise" and "Before Sunset." This year, the Taipei Film Festival held an unprecedented "trilogy marathon screening," with tickets selling out on the first day. Many cinephiles and fans were thrilled to be able to enjoy this touching love story between Jesse (played by Ethan Hawke) and Celine (played by Julie Delpy) on the big screen all at once.
According to Taiwanese media reports, "Before Midnight," which was selected for this year's Taipei Film Festival, received widespread acclaim after its premiere. It was recently recognized by the authoritative international film website Indiewire, topping the "Top 10 Best Films of 2013 So Far" list as voted by over 100 film critics.
In addition to the well-known leads, there are numerous interesting supporting characters who guide the plot development in the film. In one intense dinner scene, the guests dining with the protagonists are all highly distinguished, including a Venice Film Festival Best Actress winner, an Academy Award-winning cinematographer, a veteran actress known as the "Deanie Ip of Greece," and a rising Greek star who became known as the "ultra-explicit actor" at this year's Taipei Film Festival for his role in "Boy Eating Bird's Food," making the dinner scene truly star-studded.
The plot describes how Jesse and Celine's Greek friends host them for a wonderful evening at a luxurious seaside hotel. They fully enjoy each other's company, teasing, debating, and flirting. However, reality is always present; having argued earlier and harboring dissatisfaction with each other, they face various issues including family, work, ambition, grievances, and the ebb and flow of love. The picturesque night seems calm, but it is testing the couple in unexpected ways. It is reported that "Before Midnight" will be released in Taiwan on July 19.
