That usually comes from insecurity. But because Ethan is a confident man and he has nothing to compete with, he&#8217;s someone I think we all look up to. He was very graceful about that, and I&#8217;m deeply moved by it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Oscar winner then turns his attention to Hawke&#8217;s rightly acclaimed performance in &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiewire.com\/t\/first-reformed\/\" id=\"auto-tag_first-reformed\">First Reformed<\/a>.&#8221; &#8220;And, by the way, &#8216;First Reformed,&#8217; well, it certainly has my vote for both Best Actor and Best Director. I thought what Paul [Schrader] and Ethan got up to in that movie was a collision of topical, relevant events in terms of the environment, fractured spirituality, and a tragic character that was very compelling to watch.&#8221;<\/p>\n<aside class=\"pmc-related-link read-more\">\n\t\t\t<strong class=\"pmc-related-type\">Read More:<\/strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiewire.com\/2018\/09\/nicolas-cage-superman-henry-cavill-mandy-1202003776\/\" title=\"Nicolas Cage Was a Fan of Henry Cavill\u2019s Superman, But Sees a Lot More Potential For the Role\">Nicolas Cage Was a Fan of Henry Cavill\u2019s Superman, But Sees a Lot More Potential For the Role<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t<\/aside>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve always been a fan, I&#8217;ve always thought he was extraordinary, but I&#8217;ve never seen Ethan go there in that way, and it was shocking and very powerful,&#8221; he adds. &#8220;I think they&#8217;re gonna have a great year.&#8221; One can only hope.<\/p>\n<p>Source: IndieWire film<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ethan Hawke recently won a Lifetime Achievement award at the Locarno Film Festival, but his fans aren&#8217;t confined to Switzerland.
