Ethan Hawke Q&A

Posted October 1, 2011

Hollywood is full of dilettantes, but the 40-year-old actor is a real-deal renaissance man who’s successfully bridged film, theater, literature, and fatherhood. Who says a slacker icon can’t be the hardest-working man in show business? DETAILS: You’ve acted in about two movies a year since 1985. Do you go nuts when you’re not working?Ethan Hawke: You’re not even counting the theater! There aren’t many serious actors from my generation who’ve done as much theater as I have, and who have also published a couple of books, and who have also had four kids. I’ve always felt restless.

Moneyball

Pitt smiles, then makes a playful stab at a guilt trip: “My kids are just waiting for me at home. I’m their father. They’re wondering, ‘When’s Daddy coming home?”‘ I tell Pitt that his kids will be fine — they’ve got a strong mother […]

I liked this movie and I didn’t.

Odd rather fun movie.

I loved the cast! And I mostly liked the characters. I 80% liked the characters, but didn’t full on love them.

But biggest issue for me was
