Richard Linklater and Time 

Felt like the music with lyrics was a bit too loud in the background, making it a bit hard to hear your analysis but I still loved this!

I have to recomend you his new film: Everybody wants some!! It's a spiritual sequel of Danzed and confused ant its a new whole point of view about time. It became my favorite movie of Linklater and probably of 2016. Congrats for the videos, are really good ;)

Lovely

Can you please name me all the songs you used in this video? I want to make a Spotify playlist of them. This is my favourite video that you've made by far. Linklater has always hold a special place in my heart that not many people I know personally understand, but this video pretty much sums it up with the exception of Linklater's other philosophical standpoints - like in Waking Life and Slacker. Thank you so much for making this video though. I can't wait to see your channel manifest and have as big of an audience as Now You See It or Every Frame a Painting. You're absolutely wonderful.

you know what?! fuck Boyhood! as much as i like Linklater's films i think Boyhood is just empty, when in his other films dialogue moves the plot or clears something about charecters Boyhood's just complains about today's youth

I adore Richard Linklater and his films. All that you mentioned. Personaly, my favorite is without a doubt Waking life. A truly amazing experience that movie was.

Linklater furthered this theme in Waking Life! Have you seen it man?

Loved the video! Wish you could've turned down the music tho.

The background music was troubling.

Amazing video, but music was a bit too loud at the end - I didn't even realise you had started talking again for a few minutes!

Another great video! I still need to watch the Before trilogy but Boyhood geats better and better everytime.

I'm a little late for this, but I feel the same way about Richard Linklater, I'm so glad you did this video. There's a couple of quotes from him that further encapsulate his ideology behind films and, most of all, his humanism. From Waking Life: "-What are you writing?" +A novel." -What's the story? +There's no story. It's just ... people, gestures, moments, bits of rapture, fleeting emotions. In short, the greatest stories ever told." Ethan Hawke quoting Linkater speaking about the Before trilogy: "I've never been in an helicopter crash, I've never been involved in serious gun play, I've never been in a submarine, all these things that people make movies about, and yet my life feels to me like it's full of drama and worthy of a story. And one of the best things that ever happened to me was actually connecting with another human being, that feeling, and could we make a movie about that." It's also mentioned in the trilogy, Ethan's character wants to make a reality show about normal people having breakfast, going to work, etc. In an interview in 1991 they asked him what kind of filmmaker he was, and he just answered "For me it's about people". He's a director that tries to show the beauty of mundane, normal lives, to wake us to the beauty and value of our own. His filmography is a big ode to the humanity, showing the bad and the good, but overall being hopeful. Thank you for the video, and here's Richard Linklater's meaning of life by two quotes from Waking Life: "So much of what we perceive cannot be expressed. It's unspeakable. And yet, you know, when we communicate with one another, and we feel that we've connected, and we think that we're understood, I think we have a feeling of almost spiritual communion. And that feeling might be transient, but I think it's what we live for." "That's what I love the most -- connecting with the people. Looking back, that's all that really mattered."

His one of my favorites. Really good essay. I even got a little emotional watching it.

This is a really great video man. Linklater is my favourite director and this certainly has a lot to do with the whole thing about "time" in his movies, but I must say the music was indeed a bit too loud and it made it somewhat difficult to pay attention to what you were saying (especially when it was Delpy singing because her voice is so beautiful that one cannot simply ignore it). I had to pause and repeat a few times... totally worth it though.

This is lovely. Thank you for sharing.

i find myself crying after each of your videos. Every film you dissect are precisely my favourite films, only you put my emotions and experiences after I watch them into words. Continue what you are doing it is amazing

HOW DID I MISS THIS?!

I love these movies. I just discovered these at 67....they are a treasure. I hope we have more about Celine and Jessie....Linklater is now my favorite filmmaker...

Well done. Loved this video!

Man that is one cinematic video in itself.
