i'd agree....except there is nO EASIER QUESTION TO ANSWER. We ALL know exactly what death is like: it's like 10 years BEFORE You were born. Whatever that waslike, and what your soul was up to, is what it's like AFTER.
I've always been a fan of Ethan Hawke's work. His pause before answering 'what do you think happens when we die' is quite touching. His answer was beautiful.
He starred in a great horror movie I'm not sure but I think it was called sinister if I'm wrong about the title please reply and let me know what the title is His character moves his family to a house where the entire family was murdered to write about it and finds some old reel to reel movies and sees what could be best described as a demon and it looks back at him
Ethan Hawke seems like such an overlooked actor. In his age I see him running a lot of good roles superbly. Think of this man in a western. Would kill it
His answer for 'when we die' made me cry. I agree & I hope my dad is ok. Ran out of time to spend in this life before he died. At 50 the word Time bothers me. I know it's running out in this life yet I keep taking it for granted mostly without realizing. Despair is setting in
Damn, you said it, I'm so with ya there 100%. Just hit 52 & that realization & despair keeps kicking my ass, it's just plain hard, I'm tryin to fight it but, damn, it's hard...
filips C Movie roles are temporary (has start and end date within a movie) but not the actor who experiences different roles in different movies (life). It is the reason why Ethan said that we (conscious, immortal, nondual, immanent and omnipresent self) cannot die even though the material realm goes through perpetual duality cycles just like time. Karma or cause and effect and reincarnation (birth/death duality cycles of humans) is based on Hindu/Vedic metaphysics which can be validated by logic, double slit quantum experiment and embodied experience. Identification with thoughts and body is just an illusion created by ignorance, wrong assumption that body is the experiencer of 5 senses not the conscious self (which is not the doer) and ego (which creates false sense of i)
I think everybody takes life for granted I try not to anymore because I was in a terrible accident on my parents passed away in it I survive they didn’t so I try not to take it for granted because they were gone in a blink of an eye, life is short and less sometimes we don’t think about that cause every day on earth with your last day.
Man, I'm a huge fan of Ethan Hawke. He is so intelligent and a true student of literature and film. I like how he makes the blockbuster, then makes a low-budget indie film or two that pushes the boundaries. His range as an actor is astounding. Second, he was with Uma Thurman. As a man, I have to respect his magnetism. The most captivating woman and actress of my time, and I watched everything Uma was in. They made beautiful and talented children together. Maya Hawke is a really talented musician and actress in her own right. Even separated with Uma he's being a good father. Ethan just keeps winning at life because he knows himself, his art, and his family. What's not to admire?
One of the best pieces I’ve ever read is by Ethan. A piece in Rolling Stone magazine some years ago about Kris Kristofferson. ❤️ He’s a fantastic writer.
I know everyone is talking about his profound answer about what happens when we die, but I’m just happy someone finally said Die Hard is their favorite action movie.
I am in love ... Ethan's answer on, what he thinks happens after we die, is exactly where I have landed in my beliefs at 50. I never had a star crush on him in the 90s, but every part of, this part 1, pulled me in. Lucky wife of his, having pharamones that are his favorite scent. Whoa. Lol.
Thank you so much, Colbert crew for actually DIFFERENTIATING these two Hawke videos using PART 1 and PART 2! Now can you PLEASE keep doing this with ALL OF YOUR MULTI PART INTERVIEW VIDEOS OF YOUR GUESTS?!
I never expected such a deep and profound answer to the "what happens when we die" question...particularly not from Ethan Hawke. I have to say...his thought provoking answer blew me away...
Kudo's for Ethan for chacking and noticing the ticks. He is probably a nature guy and ticks can happen. I did not notice and now in my 20th year of Lyme disease, which has defined my lifa all those time
One interesting thing is that most people who took the Questionert said they ask for the autographs of baseball players, Ethank Hawke switched it around with Kris Kristofferson.
That answer about what happens after death is just perfect... Something like Shakespearean. That's why Ethan Hawk has always been one of my favorite actors.
There should be a movie casting Josh Brolin and Ethen Hawke - both *bearded* versions - as siblings. Maybe make them rough bikers (Josh being the older, more grizzled brother).
"Ethan Hawke seems like a guy who wasn't supposed to be a movie star, but he slipped through the cracks and everyone was just like..."OK." 🤣 -Mean Tweets
My dog knows exactly what time it is, to the minute: bed time, dinner time, walk time. He knows. Rain storms? He knows they're coming and how long they're going to last.
5:14 Amazing answer. My only quibble is that dogs are extreme creatures of habit and do seem to understand the concept of time. but then again I suppose that only further reinforces his point.
I want an entire explanation to Ethan Hawke's answer to the question: " What happens when we die?" That was very interesting...especially the part where he says he doesn't feel he has the DNA to really answer such a question...
UNTHINKABLE SANDWICH ANSWER THIS IS UNPRECEDENTED! What a godmode sandwich answer I am going to go live in the woods for 30 years and think about how unstoppably classy of a choice that is, until i can comprehend how a PB&J is better than a Philly Cheesesteak. Ethan Hawke is enlightened.
