Shoshana Rosenbaum on 'The Before Trilogy'

August 27, 2026 · 1 h 1 min

Show notes

Writer/Director Shoshana Rosenbaum grew up alongside Celine and Jesse from Richard Linklater's THE BEFORE TRILOGY. She was a recent American in Europe when BEFORE SUNRISE came out, a working 30-something when BEFORE SUNSET hit, and a married mom when BEFORE MIDNIGHT hit us with a dose of reality. She talks with Jordan about how she related to Celine (and the films as a whole) over that time, and how her personal transformation led her to become a filmmaker at 40. 

Then, Jordan has one quick (and tearful) thing about the singular Dolly Parton.

Keep up with Shoshana's film, THE OTHER YOU, and watch the trailer here.
