And it all felt so natural and organic. This is probably the best movie of the decade, and an instant classic. Linklater definitely deserves the Oscar for Best Director, and the film should win Best Picture.
Now I really want Criterion to release the Before trilogy, and for that matter, more of Linklater's filmography.

I've not watche sit yet, but try Throne of Blood, its the Macbeth story but in a samurai film (I think!) If you are a fan of that story you may find ti easier to enjoy? Or Hidden Fortress which inspired Star Wars.
