Ethan Hawke won both the LA Film Critics and the National Society of Film Critics Best Actor award and is nominated for an Oscar.

Ethan Hawke’s sensitive and poignant portrayal will break your heart in director Richard Linklater's lyrical ode to Lorenz Hart.

Hart was the famed lyricist and half of the Broadway songwriting duo Rodgers and Hart responsible for some of the most expressive showbiz lyrics of all time, including “Blue Moon,”

Now he’s all too aware that the spotlight has passed him by.

Hart struggled with depression, alcoholism and unrequited love. But he left us an abundant legacy of joy and it’s that poignant balance of darkness and light that is featured so beautifully in Blue Moon, set in the last months of Hart’s life. Ethan Hawke captures the essence of Hart magnificently and the script is a beautiful meditation on art, life, loss, and longing.
