Before I Fall Movie Quotes

Before I Fall movie quotes bring the dialogue to the film about one high school student who relives the same day, the day of her death, over and over. The drama movie was directed by Ry Russo-Young using a screenplay Maria Maggenti adapted from the novel of the same name by Lauren Oliver. Before I Fall opened theatrically in the United States on March 3, 2017.

In Before I Fall, Samantha Kingston (Zoey Deutch) has everything going for her. She's got a great boyfriend (Rob Cokran) and a great group of friends, including Lindsay (Halston Sage), Allison (Cynthy Wu) and Elody (Medalion Rahmi). As she prepares to graduate high school, she's enjoying her life and the social events that come with it.

But one day, after a party at friend Kent's (Logan Miller) house, she and her friends die in a car crash. Much to Samantha's surprise, she wakes the next morning and relives that same day again. Stuck in a perpetual pattern of living the same day over and over again, Samantha realizes that she must do something special, something remarkable, to free herself from the cycle.

Before I Fall opened theatrically alongside other early 2017 movies including Table 19, The Shack, Logan, and Collide.
