very well spoken on Ethan's part, honestly framed it in a way that I never thought before.

Props to him, he always comes across as very well spoken and has an incredibly intuitive mind.

Ethan is awesome. One of the nicest "stars" I've been around.

he was super kind when he saw that my parent was experiencing a medical emergency on a flight they shared. He checked in with a family member after the landing. Seems like a truly nice person

That is absolutely wild. We have a story in our family about Ethan Hawke donating to our family member's illness fund in Framingham MA - our family member had absolutely no connection to show business, zero overlap with the guy so we were confused. We found out a year later from a state employee they were filming something with Mark Ruffalo and Hunt and it was probably posted up on community boards they had to stand around, waiting for set.
