Ethan Hawke will break your heart in "Blue Moon," director Richard Linklater's lyrical ode to Lorenz Hart, the famed lyricist and one-half of the Broadway songwriting duo Rodgers and Hart, the team behind standards such as "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered," "The Lady is a Tramp," and "Manhattan."

Hawke plays Hart as a loquacious, sad sack romantic, drunk on the patter of his own speech when he's not just plain drunk. (He's on the wagon and off again several times during the course of the movie, which unfolds in one location, during one night.)
