I've been watching so many Ethan Hawke interviews. He's so magnetic!! I love how he embraces who he is!

[@tapanjena1707]

Ask me about it. Cant stop watching since good lord bird premiered.

[@pjtiger10]

I think I’ve seen 3 Ethan Hawke movies but I’ve watched countless interviews because I feel like he’s actually, truly, wise.

[@deRegilUribe]

I hope in 4 years you’ve seen more! He’s an amazing actor

[@yomommastupid]

The audio is amazing...I literally got an eargasm listening to Ethan with my headphones on.

[@yasminazaadeh4177]

I could listen to him all day

[@SunnyBear]

This man is a treasure

[@katiefoster2500]

His voice is like no other. I love how he sees the world and human behavior. I know he understands real pain . I am so happy to see this. Thank you Ethan.

[@joycemansfield2819]

ethan hawke ,you seem like such a smart thoughtful person.

[@kahannne]

The interviewer was so lovely, well-prepared on the subject and had sincere interest and admiration for Ethan Hawke. It was so nice to see. And I could listen to Ethan talking all day long, he's a gem of a person.

[@olafcooper1955]

I love Ethan Hawke..... Ethan Hakwe, you piece of cinematic perfection.

[@robfrancis8690]

The most interesting people aren't necessarily famous, and Ethan knows this...I can't begin to tell you how many incredibly talented people I've met along the line who simply refused to sell out. They wanted to remain anonymous. In fact after meeting several famous people in my life I've learned that most have to disguise themselves in public as they play the part of someone they're not. They want to escape the fact that they have to pretend all the time and they too want to become anonymous again. It was nice meeting you in public last summer, Ethan. I just wish you could've been yourself, and perhaps a real friendship could've evolved from a place of genuine knowledge and good humor within the context of the information you sought.

[@eun-solkim7080]

Hands down one of my favorite Ethan Hawke interviews

[@branavasorubysivabalaratna7819]

Wow.... How spiritual his words are... This man is something....

[@alexmatias6865]

Fantastic interview!

[@marinarobinson5718]

Ethan, Ethan, Ethan, when did you become a poet?

[@ReallifeUrk]

Class

[@djosephj]

Townes Van Zandt wrote Blaze's Blues about him.

[@annahart69]

One of my favourite films with Robin Williams is "One hour photo".

[@MattMacedo85]

I could listen to this guy talk all day

[@thunfish90]

Yeah Ethan is great but she does also do a great job. Why isn´t she even named? She´d deserve it.

[@funkymonk5344]

Because it is an "Ethan Hawke Full Interview".

[@bassmangotdbluz]

I remember Blaze and Townes selling their LPs for $5 a piece out of VanZant's station wagon.

[@benstevinson764]

Ethan Hawke is my favourite Film Actor! WHITE FANG 🐺 is my favourite Film!

[@MrRenardbleu]

I'd love a movie about Townes van Zandt with Adam Driver as Him. I know he gained popularity recently and last year was the year of Adam Driver. But I have this Idea since I saw him in Inside Llewin Davie and I thought he was perfect for the role

[@nicholaspaz]

that was nice

[@MrRenardbleu]

I haven't seen this movie, I don't know how good it is but Ethan Knows How to sell it

[@rikjohns96]

Haha Ethan's pulled here

[@satorimystic]

'Searching for Sugar Man' ... Make a movie on that!! Google it!!

[@BarbaraScarambone]

just thought the same thing

[@MrRenardbleu]

I'd love to hear him in Duncan Trussell Family Hour

[@Lord_of_The_World]

Maudie was his best movie.

[@42kellys]

You know dear Ethan Hawke if I could meet you I would rather like to talk with you than just take a picture. I find you interesting as a person. I suppose you do not read comments..
