Joe S @Barisax Jun 5 I was surprised how factual it was. Uncle Earl would be pround to know Paul Newman played him. His story was complicated but the film makers were able to slice a piece of his story to a coherent one. See more Jeanne J @RT80212438 Feb 23 An absolute gem. So pleased Ethan Hawke produced this, giving us an insight to a Texan legend in ‘outlaw country music’. Blaze was a philosopher, comedian and renaissance man, not letting religion get in his way, or anything else. Great performances from Ben Dickey, who l’ve praised before, so underrated or maybe he only chooses good movies that don’t get streamed. Alia Shawkat was a convincing lover and features a lot. I don’t usually enjoy love scenes but this doesn’t spoil the movie as it’s quite cerebral. Bit sad, quite funny, a tiny bit scary and very moving. Happy to have discovered Blaze Foley.

See more 07/13/2014 150815: Based upon a true story, Blaze is a brief glimpse into the overlapping lives of two unique people, one a politician and one an adult entertainer. It's a love story, comedy and political satire all set in the racially charged late 50s. Well worth watching once, and can see myself coming back to it again. Newman is fantastic as Earl Long.
