Ethan Hawke directs his daughter Maya Hawke in “Wildcat,” a movie about the Southern Catholic writer Flannery O'Connor
Ethan Hawke and his daughter Maya Hawke have a running joke about their Flannery O’Connor movie. “Wildcat,” which Ethan directed and Maya stars in as O’Connor, was made with complete sincerity. It’s a deeply creative investigation into the Southern Catholic novelist and short story writer behind “A Good Man is Hard to Find” that dips in and out of both her imagination and her real life. O’Connor died at age 39, in 1964, of lupus. She won the National Book Award posthumously, in 1972.
Biopics hold little interest to Ethan, especially, he said “in the age of Wikipedia.” But in agreeing to direct and co-write the film, he thought of films like Martin Scorsese’s “Raging Bull” and Jane Campion’s “An Angel at My Table.” They were about real subjects, Jake LaMotta and Janet Frame, but they didn’t require any preexisting interest in boxing or literature. They were just films about people.
