Dead Horse's experiment with reviewing good movies for grownups continues, with Richard Linklater's 2004 masterpiece "Before Sunset." Julie Delpy & Ethan Hawke return, co-writing the script for a real-time romantic drama that makes an artistic case for sequels. How do I write a funny summary about this one god damb. We reviewed three movies about killer sharks and this movie is more riveting and high-stakes than all of them combined. Love is real. Movies are good, actually.

Before Sunrise

The horses are back to discuss: an actually...good movie? We jump into some heavier themes like... what is love? What does it mean to be a young person in 1995? Are cellphones good, or maybe are they prisons? Is Ethan Hawke a hot romantic guy or an annoying baby who is totally blowing it? Is Julie Delpy...better than everyone?

Before Midnight

SEASON FINALE! The Horses ride off into the sunset, taking one last trip with Jesse & Celine in the Before Trilogy's final (?) installment, Before Midnight. The 2013 romantic drama picks up with Jesse & Celine in their early 40's, as they break out into an argument that will test the fabric of their entire relationship. The Horses discuss arguing with partners, the inherent challenges of building a relationship and being alive, divorce, and what it takes to believe in love against all odds. Is love meant to last forever? Can it? What does that take? Lots of "Lmao's" and "Rofl's" in this episode of our comedy and film podcast.
