Berlin International Film Festival: won Best Supporting Actor: Andrew Scott
"Linklater’s latest is a moving and multifaceted ode to a bygone era and an artist whose creativity and contradictions were equally titanic." Nick Schager/The Daily Beast
"Linklater has crafted one of his finest dramedies, a consistently fascinating exploration of the frailty of the artist, buoyed by one of Ethan Hawke’s most remarkable performances." Brian Tallerico/RogerEbert.com
"Ethan Hawke is charming and “overwhelming” in equal measure, a force of audacious, vibrating energy that thrums like a choir line vibrato. A witty, salacious biopic... Richard Linklater could attract award buzz for Hawke's witty, theatrical performance." David Opie/Indiewire
"Blue Moon, like Lorenz Hart in his day, trusts that audiences want to engage with subjects that matter through deliberate dialogue." Marshall Schaffer/Slant Magazine
