\u201cBlue Moon\u201d, Richard Linklater\u2019s delightful new film, centers on one important night which changes the course of life for one Lorenz Hart (“Blue Moon”, “The Lady Is a Tramp”, “Manhattan” and “My Funny Valentine”). This particular night happens to be March 31st, 1943, which is the opening night of the Broadway production of \u201cOklahoma!\u201d.<\/p>\n

During this night, in real time, Hart discovers that Richard Rodgers, his creative partner, abandons their project in favor of a new partnership with Oscar Hammerstein, with whom he writes the successful plays that include: \u201cCarousel\u201d, \u201cThe King and I\u201d, \u201cSouth Pacific\u201d and \u201cThe Sound of Music\u201d.<\/p>\n

Ethan Hawke delivers an impactful performance as Lorenz Hart, a closeted alcoholic, who also likes to be in the presence of young women. One of these women, played by Margaret Qualley (\u201cThe Substance\u201d). Bobby Cannavale portrays a bartender. Richard Rodgers, Hart\u2019s friend and secret lover, who leaves him abruptly because of his unstable nature, is perfectly portrayed by Andrew Scott (\u201cAll of Us Strangers\u201d).<\/p>\n

\u201cBlue Moon\u201d captures an especially painful moment during an evening which marks the end of a career for a tortured genius, while doing so with a comedic touch and a painfully sobering style. All this results in 100 minutes which are unique and especially amazing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
