Ethan Hawke: Jealousy Is A Simple Waste Of Time (2007)

A 36 year old Ethan Hawke talks about his career as an actor from "Explorers" (1985) and “Dead Poets Society” (1989) through "Reality Bites" (1994), "Before Sunrise" (1995), “Gattaca” (1997), “Great Expectations” (1998), “Hamlet” (2000), Training Day (2001), "Before Sunset" (2004), "Assault on Precinct 13" (2005) and 'Lord of War (2005). He describes his collaborations with Peter Weir, Richard Linklater, Andrew Niccol, Alfonso Cuarón and Michael Almereyda, his wariness of fame at a young age, the effect of the loss of River Phoenix, the traps of typecasting, the terror of talk shows, how Denzel Washington eats actors for breakfast, Dylan Thomas, and why he writes and directs.

I never wanted this interview to end. I feel like Ethan Hawke had tapped into his very soul and what came out of it was beautiful honesty. I would love to spend an evening with him over dinner, just to have an honest conversation about life, the universe and everything.

When will you release the Cuaron interview? This interview is beautiful btw.

13:55 interviewer asks Hawke earlier what Gen X is; 5 minutes later Hawke nails the Gen X attitude with this statement, which, not accidentally, mirrors the very attitude the film tries to convey. Life imitating art imitating life

excellent 👍🏼

[@mikaeldk5700]

I think he is a great actor, but this would seem a good moment for him to take a slight break from the "Hollywood Candy".

Ethan it's not jealousy. It's major disappointment in some industries.
