Evans makes his directorial debut with the movie about two
strangers who meet in New York one night, and whose initial
acquaintance turns into a more trusting relationship.
Speaking at the film's screening in Los Angeles on Wednesday
night, Evans said he was "just getting my feet wet" directing
his first feature film.
"It was kind of a new kid at the first day of school, it was
understood that I had no formal training so it's a matter of
trying to not make a fool out of yourself," Evans told Reuters.
"But I was surrounded by a lot of good people and I had a lot of
good advice from a lot of talented departments."
The movie has drawn comparisons to award-winning director
Richard Linklater's romantic drama trilogy "Before Sunrise",
"Before Sunset" and "Before Midnight".
"Richard Linklater is a phenomenal director and if this is a
homage to him then that's a great achievement for Chris," Eve
said when asked about the similarities between the films.
"Before We Go" opens in U.S. cinemas on Friday.
