Blue Moon

In 1943 lyricist Lorenz Hart (Ethan Hawke, in a Golden Globe-nominated performance) confronts his shattered self-confidence, alcoholism and mental health as he tries to save face in a bar as his former collaborator, Richard Rodgers (Andrew Scott), celebrates the opening night of his groundbreaking hit musical “Oklahoma!”

“Ethan Hawke delivers a heartbreaking, career-best performance in Blue Moon, a beautifully worded, intimate chamber piece where Linklater turns one night of despair into a luminous portrait of artistic ruin and fleeting human connection.” (Rotten Tomatoes)

“If Blue Moon feels destined to be seen by a fraction of the already small percentage of the population who enjoyed those films, Hawke’s scenes with Scott and Qualley nevertheless stand out.” (Sunday Times UK)

“Blue Moon is nostalgic for old Broadway glamour, but also acutely attuned to the desolation behind the glitz. Not so much old-fashioned, then, as resembling an Old Fashioned: freshly mixed, generous with the bitters, a sophisticated, poignant.” (Financial Times)
