If you stick around through the closing credits of Before Midnight, the latest film in the trilogy that also includes Before Sunrise and Before Sunset, you'll see that the movie is dedicated to someone whose name even the most die-hard fans have never heard before: Amy Lehrhaupt. Almost 25 years ago, Lehrhaupt met a young man named Richard Linklater and spent a night with him that he never forgot. Their encounter inspired Linklater to conceive and direct Before Sunrise, the first film in the series. She never saw it, though; unbeknownst to Linklater, by the time that movie came out, Lehrhaupt was dead.
"Before Midnight" is the last of the trilogy including "Before Sunrise" and "Before Sunset". If you insist on watching the cast and crew list at the end of the movie, you will see the director dedicated the movie to a person whose name has never been heard by even the most die-hard fans— -Amy Lehrhaupt (Amy Lehrhaupt). Almost 25 years ago, Amy Reihaupt met a young man named Richard Linklater (Richard Linklater) and spent a night with him, which made him unforgettable. Their encounter inspired Linklater to conceive and direct the inspiration for "Love Before Sunrise", which is also the first part of this trilogy. However, she did not see the film, because Linklater did not know that Rehaupt had died before the film was released.
Linklater never mentioned Lehrhaupt by name in the press before promoting Before Midnight—Ethan Hawke has said that the director was uncomfortable mentioning her until “extremely recently”—but he has long made brief references to their encounter. From a number of interviews he's done over the years, we can now piece together the complete story of how Lehrhaupt helped inspire the series.
Before the promotion of "Love Before Midnight", Linklater never mentioned Rehaupt's name in the media. Ethan Hawke once said that director Linklater had been uncomfortable mentioning her until "very recently". However, Linklater briefly mentioned their encounter a long time ago. We can now piece together this complete story about how Reihaupt inspired the creation of this series of films from the many interviews he has participated in over the years.
Linklater met Lehrhaupt in fall 1989, when he was visiting his sister in Philadelphia. He was 29 and had just finished shooting Slacker, and was staying there for one night while passing through on the way home from New York. Lehrhaupt was several years younger, about 20. They met in a toy shop, and ended up spending the whole night together, “from midnight until six in the morning,” “walking around, flirting, doing things you would never do now.” As in Before Sunrise, most of what they did was talk, “about art, science, film, the gamut.” Did they kiss? Yes. Did they have sex? The Times went so far as to ask Linklater in a recent interview, but he said he wants to "Leave a little mystery."
Linklater met Rehaupt in the fall of 1989, and he was visiting his sister in Philadelphia. He was 29 years old and had just finished filming the movie "Slacker", and stopped there for one night on his way home from New York. Reihaupt is a few years younger than him, about 20 years old. They met in a toy store and ended up spending the whole night together. "From midnight until six in the morning", "hanging around, flirting, doing things you would never do now", just like in "Love Before Sunrise", most of what they do is Chat, "Talk about art, science, movies, talk about everything", did they kiss? Yes. Did they have sex? When The Times recently interviewed Linklater, he was asked about this point, but he said that he wanted to keep a touch of mystery.
Even in the midst of that romantic night, the filmmaker in Linklater couldn't help but consider its cinematic possibilities. In a 2004 interview with the New York Times, he remembered “walking around [thinking],'If I could just capture this feeling I'm having right now,' instead of actually having that feeling." On a recent episode of the podcast The Q&A with Jeff Goldsmith, he recalled mentioning the movie idea to Lehrhaupt that night:
Even on such a romantic night, the identity of the filmmaker in Linklater's body cannot consider the possibility of making it into a movie. In an interview with The New York Times in 2004, he said that he remembered "walking around, [thinking], "I want to capture and retain my current feelings, not just Really feel it.' In a recent episode of the podcast "The Q&A with Jeff Goldsmith", Linklater recalled his being there. In the evening, I mentioned this film idea to Reihaupt:
|||Even as that experience was going on… I was like, “I'm gonna make a film about this.” And she was like, “What'this' What're you talking about?" And I was like, "Just this. This feeling. This thing that's going on between us."|||
||| "I want to make it into a movie. "She said: "What is'it'?" what are you talking about? "Then I said: "It's'this', this feeling, this thing that flows between us. ”|||
But as the night came to an end, the paths of Linklater and Lehrhaupt began to diverge from the fictional storyline of Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Céline (Julie Delpy). In fact, on The Q&A, Linklater revealed that the ending of Before Sunrise was in part a response to what happened with him and Lehrhaupt. Unlike Jesse and Céline, who agree to reconvene in six months, the real-life young lovers exchanged numbers and tried to keep in touch while they were away. They called each other a few times, but it was “that long distance thing” that did them in. “It sort of did the fizzle,” he says, “So in the first movie that was a thing, the idea that they would intellectually kind of get beyond that and say'Well, we're on different continents. What are the odds that it's gonna work. Let's just commit to this night.' ”
However, after the end of the night, the life path of Linklater and Rehaupt and the fictional storyline of Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Céline (Julie Delpe) Acting) Comparing the life trajectories of the two, they have become more and more different. In fact, on the Q&A podcast, Linklater revealed that the ending of "Love Before Sunrise" was partly a response to what happened to him and Rehaupt. The difference with Jesse and Celine agreed to see each other 6 months later is that the two young lovers in reality exchanged phone numbers with each other and tried to keep in touch during their separation. They called each other several times, but "long-distance love" made them exhausted. "Our relationship slowly ended in an anticlimax," Linklater continued, "So in the first movie They also reflected it. They crossed it intellectually and said, "Oh, we live on different continents and this relationship is unlikely to develop. Let's devote ourselves to this night.""
Linklater soon became involved with another woman, who “swept into [his] life ... and took over for about a year or so,” and he and Lehrhaupt never talked again. He did think that maybe “she would show up at a Before Sunrise screening or something." In Before Sunset, Céline shows up at a reading of Jesse's book This Time, which is based on their night together. "It would be so weird," he said, in 2004. But she never did.
Linklater soon developed an intimate relationship with another woman who "fascinated him and took up his life...for about a year," after which he and Rehaupt never spoke. He did think about it, maybe "she will appear in a screening of "Love Before Sunrise", or something like that." In "Love Before Sunset", Celine appeared in Jesse's book "This Time/ At this time (This Time) reading meeting, and that book was written based on the night they spent together. "(If she appeared in a screening of "Love Before Sunrise") it would definitely feel weird," Linklater said in 2004. However, she never appeared.
Linklater didn't know then that Lehrhaupt had died in a motorcycle accident on May 9, 1994, before she reached her 25th birthday. Before Sunrise started filming a few weeks later. Linklater only learned of her death three years ago, when a friend of Lehrhaupt's, who knew about the encounter, put it together and sent him a letter. “It was very sad,” Linklater told the Times. Ethan Hawke was similarly devastated when he heard it, though he reminded Linklater that if he hadn't met her, then he never would have made these movies or met some of the people who worked on them with him. “Who knows how we reverberate through each other's lives,” Linklater reflected in another interview, “But she's an inspiration on this.”
At that time, Linklater did not know that Reihaupt had died in a motorcycle accident on May 9, 1994, before her 25th birthday. "Love Before Sunrise" was filmed a few weeks later. Linklater didn't learn of her death until 3 years ago. A friend of Rehaupt who knew the two of them met, gathered the news and sent him a letter. Linklater told the Times: "I feel very sad." Ethan Hawke was equally sad when he heard the news, but he still reminded Linklater that if he had never met her, then he would not. Will create these movies, and meet some people who work hard with him for these movies. Linklater thought deeply in another interview and said: "No one knows how we interweave and echo in each other's lives, but she is the inspiration for this echo."
In this way, Linklater did find another way to make that feeling, that “thing in the air” they once had between them, last: He turned it into cinema.
In this way, Linklater, he finally, really, found another way to create that feeling, that kind of them What he once owned, what reverberates between them, "things floating in the air"-he turned it into a movie.
