The Writers Guild of America, East

invites you and one (1) guest to attend a screening of

BLAZE
Followed by a Q&A w/ Ethan Hawke and Sybil Rosen

This event includes a 30-minute post-screening Q&A. As a courtesy to Mr. Hawke and Ms. Rosen, attendees are expected to stay to the end of the event.

BLAZE is inspired by the life of Blaze Foley, the unsung songwriting legend of the Texas outlaw music movement that spawned the likes of Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson. The film weaves together three different periods of time, braiding re-imaged versions of Blaze's past, present and future. The different strands explore his love affair with Sybil Rosen; his last, dark night on earth; and the impact of his songs and his death had on his fans, friends, and foes. The braided storyline terminates in a bittersweet ending that acknowledges Blaze's profound highs and lows, as well as the impressions he made on the people who shared his journey.
