With two Oscar nominations, Blue Moon delights and challenges

Hot off its Academy Award nominations for best original screenplay (Robert Kaplow) and best actor (Ethan Hawke), Popcorn Podcast discusses Richard Linklater’s Blue Moon, which tells the story of legendary lyricist Lorenz Hart as his professional and private life unravel at the opening night party for his former creative partner’s hit show Oklahoma! From unpacking a career-best performance, to the dialogue-heavy script and some truly effective camera trickery, Blue Moon will delight musical theatre aficionados and lovers of language and art. All this and more in a brand new episode of Popcorn Podcast.
