Before Sunrise, Prince Charles Cinema, Mon 29th June 5.30pm 1995 101mins USA(15) Romance/Drama Directed by Richard Linklater Starring Ethan Hawke, Julie Delpy, Andrea Eckert 8.1 IIMDb rating Synopsis A young man and woman meet on a train in Europe, and wind up spending one evening together in Vienna. Unfortunately, both know that this will probably be their only night together. ***Before Sunrise*** is a 1995 [romantic drama](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romance_film "Romance film") film directed by [Richard Linklater](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Linklater "Richard Linklater") and co-written by Linklater and [Kim Krizan](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kim_Krizan "Kim Krizan"), and is the first installment in the *[Before](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Before_trilogy "Before trilogy")*[ trilogy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Before_trilogy "Before trilogy"). In the film, Jesse ([Ethan Hawke](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethan_Hawke "Ethan Hawke")) and Céline ([Julie Delpy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julie_Delpy "Julie Delpy")) meet on a train and disembark in [Vienna](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vienna "Vienna") to spend the night toge The film explores themes and perspectives on life, love, time, death, self-discovery, and [postmodern](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postmodern "Postmodern") romance. Linklater and Krizan long discussed the concept of the film and the characters.[\[10\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Before_Sunrise#cite_note-Linklater-10) He wanted to explore the "relationship side of life and discover two people who had complete anonymity and try to find out who they really were".[\[](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Before_Sunrise#cite_note-Donahue-11) **Themes** *Before Sunrise* revolves largely around the twin themes of self-fulfillment and self-discovery through a significant other, charging the concept through the introduction of a twelve-hour time constraint in which the goals implicit to the two themes have to be realized. They are underlined by the poem "*Delusion Angel*", which evokes a longing for complete and unifying, possibly even redeeming, understanding between two partners in a world which is itself unknowable, and over which one can exercise no control. An important role is played by the theme of spontaneous and uninhibited response to one's environment. It is reflected by the actions of Jesse and Céline, whose joint [stream of consciousness](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_of_consciousness_(psychology) "Stream of consciousness (psychology)"), initiated by a previously unmeditated decision to leave the train together, allows them to temporarily detach themselves from the world, and enter a realm where only the other's company is of importance. Come morning, Jesse remarks that he and Céline have again entered "real time". *Before Sunrise* premiered at the [Sundance Film Festival](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sundance_Film_Festival "Sundance Film Festival") on January 19, 1995, and was theatrically released in the United States by [Columbia Pictures](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbia_Pictures "Columbia Pictures") eight days later. It grossed $22.5 million and received critical acclaim for its screenplay, Linklater's direction, and acting performances. *Before Sunrise* appeared on many critics' lists of the greatest films of the year and has since gone onto receive a [rating of 100%](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_with_a_100%25_rating_on_Rotten_Tomatoes "List of films with a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes") on [Rotten Tomatoes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotten_Tomatoes "Rotten Tomatoes"). **Cast** · [Ethan Hawke](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethan_Hawke "Ethan Hawke") as Jesse · [Julie Delpy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julie_Delpy "Julie Delpy") as Céline · [Andrea Eckert](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrea_Eckert "Andrea Eckert") as wife on train · [Hanno Pöschl](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanno_P%C3%B6schl "Hanno Pöschl") as husband on train · Karl Bruckschwaiger as guy on bridge · Tex Rubinowitz as guy on bridge · [Erni Mangold](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erni_Mangold "Erni Mangold") as palm reader · Dominik Castell as street poet · Haymon Maria Buttinger as bartender · Bilge Jeschim as belly dancer · [Adam Goldberg](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Goldberg "Adam Goldberg") as man sleeping on train (uncredited) Reviews "Thought-provoking and beautifully filmed, *Before Sunrise* is an intelligent, unabashedly romantic look at modern love, led by marvelously natural performances from Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy."[\[](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Before_Sunrise#cite_note-20) "Just once, for a single day, Jesse and Céline have given life the sort of shape and charge that until now they have found only in fiction, and may never find again". "the best romance of all time".

Are you working 50+ hours a week just to pay for a tiny flat you only see when you sleep — or can finally buy when you are 40? While chasing a promotion, our friendships fade, birthdays get missed, and dating becomes a luxury. On the flip side, choosing total freedom often means living paycheck to paycheck and stressing over rising costs of living. We are constantly trading our youth for money, or our sanity for success, pretending we can actually balance it all. We'll discuss: 1. **Dating vs. Career Ladder:** Is career success worth turning your love life into a transactional chore? 2. **Family vs. Freedom:** Does dodging family commitments buy you true independence or just lonely weekends? 3. **Youth vs. Retirement:** Are we burning our best years today just to buy peace at 60? *Join a room of international minds, creative professionals, and cosmopolitans for our weekly late-night conversation lounge. We skip the small talk to dive directly into the gray areas of relationships, modern culture, and society.* *Come for the perspective. Stay for the connections.* **🍸 THE VIBE** * **Curated Conversations:** Sharp, spicy, and unfiltered topics. We tackle everything from cultural identity to institutional trust - we focus on personal philosophies and lived experiences rather than rigid point-scoring. * **Cinematic Backdrop:** Hosted in the moody lounge of Curzon Aldgate, perfect for late-night cocktails and deep chat. * **Fluid Mingling:** An organic mix of curated group discussions, then unstructured socializing over drinks. * **A Global Collective:** Connect with international graduates, London's creatives, open-minded travelers, etc. **🕒 THE RUN SHEET** * **19:30 – 20:00 \| The Warm Up:** Arrive, grab a cocktail, and settle into the lounge space. * **20:00 – 21:30 \| The Hot Takes:** We move into our hosted conversation circles. We rotate groups so you meet everyone. * **21:30 – Late \| The After\-chat:** The lounge bar stays open for late-night mingling and drinks. **📜 HOUSE RULES** 1. **Challenge Ideas, Not People:** We love strong opinions, lightly held. No personal attacks. 2. **No Soapboxing:** This is an exchange of perspectives, not a lecture. Leave your monologues at home. 3. **Be Present:** Put the phones away during the conversation circles. 4. **Open Minds Only:** Bring your cultural background, leave your judgment at the door. **📍 THE DETAILS** * **Where:** The Lounge Bar at Curzon Aldgate, 2 Canter Way, E1 8PS. * **Entry:** Free entry. Kindly support the venue by ordering a drink or snack at the bar. * **Dress Code:** Smart/City Casual * **Transport:** Aldgate East, Aldgate, Tower Hill/Gateway stations are all within a 5-minute walk. **🌎 ABOUT US** **World Citizens** is London's premier cosmopolitan collective.

Hello there! - We'd like to welcome you to Free weekly meetings which take place at the Swiss Cottage Community Centre, 19 Winchester Rd, Swiss Cottage NW3 3NR on Tuesday evenings from 7.30pm until 8.30pm Contacts: Jim Ward: 07956 222098 Mary: 07771 596665 Mary: maryconneelyoneill@hotmail.com With Sahaja Yoga Meditation we normally sit on chairs to achieve yoga, effortlessly & spontaneously. So there is no need for mats and no special clothing required. All across the globe, many are seeking new sources of energy. Meanwhile, the most transformative energy of all is hiding in plain sight, within us. It's natural, sustainable, and infinitely renewable. It's called inner kundalini energy. And everyone already has it — everyone!. It is often likened to an inner feminine or motherly energy which automatically knows about us and what is needed to help us restore balance and harmony within our subtle being. It works spontaneously, effortlessly, organically and cannot be paid for. Sahaja Yoga Meditation is a simple time-honoured technique that lets you tap into that energy and harness its power to become better balanced and better connected to yourself — emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually. If you're having trouble juggling the challenges in your life, Sahaja Yoga Meditation might well help you manage stress, master your emotions and find solutions to your problems. You may enjoy better health, better focus, and a deeper understanding of the universe and your place in it. Meditation is not just for mystics and monks. Sahaja Yoga meditation is for everyone. Anyone can do it. It's that easy. But with the Sahaja Yoga experience, you'll quickly realise, it isn't your typical Meditations 'R Us type class. It's much more than just feeling peaceful and relaxed. Sahaja Yoga Meditation has many layers, varied and deep. Explore at your own pace, in your own way. Our volunteer experts are always available to help. Ready to plug into your inner energy? A Sahaja Yoga Meditation class is a great way to start. A few minutes of your life may be all it takes to connect to your inner energy and light the path to lifelong transformation. Sahaja Yoga is more than a temporary solution or quick relief — it is a journey, rather than a destination. It's all about energy — guaranteed pure and carbon neutral. You can never have too much of it. The best part? All classes are free. No strings, no catch. Everyone is welcome. Bring a friend, bring your self — all are welcome. We have a web site here in London too which you can visit at: http://www.sahajayogalondon.co.uk
