Ethan Hawke: Richard Linklater
built 234 days ago
In 2002, Hawke played alongside Frank Whaley in The Jimmy Show and made an appearance on the hit television drama Alias the next year. The year 2003 was not a banner one for the actor -- after rumors of an affair between Hawke and a young model began circulating among various television and print tabloids, Uma Thurman announced their official separation after five years of marriage. In 2004, Hawke starred with Angelina Jolie in director D.J. Caruso's Taking Lives and reprised his Before Sunrise role opposite Julie Delpy in Linklater's sequel Before Sunset, a film which ... provided the long-time actor with his first screenwriting credit. ~ Rebecca Flint, All Movie Guide

Hawke was soon starring in two snowy adventures, 1991’s Disney inspirational “White Fang” and 1993’s true-life survival story “Alive”. Already a well-known star at the age of 23, Hawke’s hot streak continued with the breezy romantic drama “Reality Bites” in 1994. Directed by Ben Stiller and co-starring Winona Ryder, the film gave a pitch-perfect representation of a group of overeducated, angsty Gen X wanderers and is now considered a modern classic. Hawke’s first collaboration with writer-director Richard Linklater came the next year with “Before Sunrise”, a gorgeous Vienna-set drama that remains one of the great love stories of modern cinema. Hawke co-wrote the film’s terrific 2004 sequel “Before Sunrise”, which earned the writers an Oscar nomination.
