Andrew Scott has been captivating audiences, and his recent triumph at the 75th Berlin International Film Festival, where he received the Silver Bear for Best Supporting Performance, underscores his compelling talent.
This prestigious award recognizes his portrayal of Richard Rodgers in Richard Linklater’s highly anticipated biopic, BLUE MOON. The film, which premiered in Berlin on February 18th, offers a poignant glimpse into the tumultuous final days of Broadway lyricist Lorenz Hart, Rodgers’ pivotal collaborator before his legendary partnership with Oscar Hammerstein II.
Starring alongside Ethan Hawke as Hart, Scott inhabits the role of Rodgers during a critical juncture, primarily set against the backdrop of the 1943 opening night of OKLAHOMA!. This groundbreaking musical not only revolutionized musical theatre but also cemented Rodgers and Hammerstein’s status as a dominant force. However, BLUE MOON delves into the preceding era, spotlighting the fruitful yet ultimately strained collaboration between Rodgers and Hart, a partnership that gifted the world 28 stage musicals, including ON YOUR TOES and PAL JOEY, and timeless standards like “Blue Moon,” “The Lady Is a Tramp,” “My Funny Valentine,” and “Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered.”
As Hart’s struggles with alcoholism led Rodgers to seek new creative avenues, BLUE MOON promises to offer a nuanced portrayal of this pivotal moment in Broadway history. Featuring a talented ensemble cast including Margaret Qualley, Bobby Cannavale, Jonah Lees, Simon Delaney, and Cillian Sullivan, and with a screenplay penned by Robert Kaplow,
BLUE MOON is set for a limited theatrical release in Los Angeles and New York on October 17th, followed by a nationwide roll-out on October 24th, inviting audiences to witness Scott’s award-winning performance and explore this fascinating chapter of American musical theatre.
