Ethan Hawke Directs
3 Episodes
Ethan Hawke’s uniquely personal work as a director reflects his restlessly curious mind, deep engagement with music and literature, and iconoclastic approach to the biopic form. From a wonderfully warm documentary portrait of an octogenarian classical pianist (SEYMOUR: AN INTRODUCTION) to a boldly unconventional biography of a hard-living country music legend (BLAZE) to a vivid journey into the mind of writer Flannery O’Connor (WILDCAT), Hawke offers bracing insights into the mysteries of creativity and the passionate struggle of lives lived fully and uncompromisingly in the name of art.
WILDCAT will premiere in a live event in mid-January.
