Summary
James Lipton hosts an evening of discussion with actor, writer and film director Ethan Hawke. Hawke discusses his upbringing as the son of young, student parents who separated when Hawke was three; his famly's frequent relocations; his mother Leslie and his stepfather Patrick Powers; doing his first play at the McCarter Theatre in Princeton, New Jersey; his first motion picture role, at age 13, in Explorers (1985), and his feelings of jealousy and competiveness with his co-star River Phoenix; his education, and his decision to pursue his career as an actor. Hawke examines his roles in the motion pictures Dead Poets Society (1989), Dad (1989), A midnight clear (1992), Reality bites (1994), Gattaca (1997), on which he worked with Uma Thurman, who later became his wife; Great expectations (1998), Hamlet (2000), and Training day (2001), on which he worked with Denzel Washington. Hawke also speaks about a theater company called Malaparte he co-founded in 1991; the novels he has written; fatherhood; his approach to film acting; and his foray into direction with his 2001 film Chelsea walls. A brief question and answer session with Hawke and the Actors Studio master's degree students concludes the program.
