Message: [QUOTE="Queen, post: 87511, member: 27"] A fifth Oscar nomination, 25 years after the first, has Ethan Hawke genuinely reflecting on a lifetime spent in the acting game. Hawke's latest nomination and full-circle moment [LIST] [*]Ethan Hawke scored a Best Actor nod for his role in Blue Moon. [*]Training Day marked his first nomination roughly 25 years ago. [*]Hawke was the youngest nominee in his category back then, and now he's the oldest. [*]Four prior nominations haven't translated into a win yet. [/LIST] His memories of working with Denzel Washington [LIST] [*]Hawke starred alongside Denzel Washington as a Los Angeles police officer in Training Day. [*]Riding shotgun on a project with Washington was not lost on him. [*]Washington is someone Hawke considers one of the greatest actors who has ever lived. [*]Younger Hawke apparently needed zero advice, because he already knew how lucky he was. [/LIST] What makes Blue Moon such a demanding role [LIST] [*]Hawke portrays lyricist Lorenz Hart in Richard Linklater's Blue Moon. [*]Hart ranks among the most challenging parts he's ever taken on. [*]Physical work, vocal demands, movement, and complex ideas all came into play simultaneously. [*]He described the whole thing as anything but a light lift. [/LIST] Hawke's mindset then and now [LIST] [*]By his own account, patience has been a constant throughout his career. [*]Anxiety and nerves were never really part of his approach to the job. [*]Enjoying every second is something he's actively trying to carry into his current work. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
