“Before Sunrise” What is the philosophy of time and space created by Richard Linklater?

The story of this work begins on a train that runs from Budapest to Paris. Two people sit in separate seats: Celine, a French college student played by Julie Delpy, and Jesse, an American tourist played by Ethan Hawke. Celine was quietly reading in the car when a German couple sitting next to her started fighting loudly and violently, so she left and sat down near Jesse.

Jesse is attracted to Celine, who has a cute appearance that resembles ``an angel drawn by Botticelli,'' as is expressed later in the play, and he can't help but talk to her. Ethan Hawke, who has an image of being fearless, retains a boyish innocence in this moment, and both of them exude a dreamy beauty that only exists when young. If you watch this film now, so much time has passed, you may feel a sense of sadness. By the way, as of 2018, Julie Delpy and Ethan Hawke continue to be movie actors, and Delpy has also made his debut as a movie director.

Celine was planning to return to Paris, but Jesse asked her if she would like to get off in Vienna. Thus, the two, who live across the ocean from France and America, end up spending a romantic time together until the next morning, wandering the streets of Austria's old music capital, Vienna, and exchanging various stories.
