Ethan Hawke is floppy-haired perfection in this imperfect one crazy night movie, that turned out to be a little too crazy for our filmmaker sibling guests, the Shakespeare Sisters (Soundtrack to Sixteen, Much Ado). Topics include the one time Ethan Hawke was a teen movie lead, disagreements on Hawke's chemistry with co-star Terri Polo, and why for our guests, Hawke's character's conniving brother played by Brian McNamara is the more charming of the two. One Crazy Night/Teen Movies discussed this episode: Before Sunrise, Soundtrack to Sixteen, Much Ado, After Hours, Into the Night, 8 Days a Week, Superbad Dazed and Confused, Can't Hardly Wait, Trojan War, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, Some Kind of Wonderful, Better Off Dead, Not Another Teen Movie, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Career Opportunities, Dawson's Creek, The Graduate. "Heavy Metal Cinephile" riffage this month is 'Caved In' by Spite. *Apologies about the sound quality on our guests' end!

In only our second film on a podcast obsessively covering the work of a single actor, we're talking about when fandom goes too far. JULIET, NAKED sees the Hawke in delightfully dishevelled form, and as a romantic comedy, its charm is matched by deceptive depth.  Topics include Hawke's character Tucker Crowe as a later-in-life version of Troy Dyer, fictional rockstars not having the tunes to support their legend, musical gatekeeping and the Nick Hornby rom-com cottage industry.

We’re kicking off our journey into Ethan’s oeuvre with the film that made Hawke the cinematic face of Generation X, and for the next few years, a pin-up leading man. It’s a testament to Hawke’s then-emerging star power, pop cultured charisma, and slacker hotness, that the character of Troy Dyer, an uncompromisingly self-absorbed, “24-hour-a-day taste fascist” remains one of his most enduring and fondly remembered. Topics include the cultural moment of the film’s production, a soundtrack arguably bigger than the film itself, how a script written by a twenty-three-year-old sounds today, and of course, Winona forever!
