On the evening of March 31, 1943, legendary lyricist Lorenz Hart (Ethan Hawke) confronts his shattered self-confidence in Sardi’s bar in New York City as his former collaborator Richard Rodgers (Andrew Scott) celebrates the opening night of his ground-breaking hit musical Oklahoma! on Broadway. Directed by Richard Linklater.

Berlin International Film Festival: won Best Supporting Actor: Andrew Scott

Linklater’s latest is a moving and multifaceted ode to a bygone era and an artist whose creativity and contradictions were equally titanic. Nick Schager/The Daily Beast

Linklater has crafted one of his finest dramedies, a consistently fascinating exploration of the frailty of the artist, buoyed by one of Ethan Hawke’s most remarkable performances. Brian Tallerico/RogerEbert.com

Ethan Hawke is charming and “overwhelming” in equal measure, a force of audacious, vibrating energy that thrums like a choir line vibrato. A witty, salacious biopic... Richard Linklater could attract award buzz for Hawke's witty, theatrical performance. David Opie/Indiewire

Blue Moon, like Lorenz Hart in his day, trusts that audiences want to engage with subjects that matter through deliberate dialogue. Marshall Schaffer/Slant Magazine
