Pull up a chair to listen to Ethan Hawkes Lorenz Hart hold court in Richard Linklaters deliciously wistful Blue Moon (Saturday, Feb. 14 on Netflix). Linklaters film spends one night with the celebrated lyricist who is watching his longtime songwriter partner, Richard Rodgers (Andrew Scott) move on with the premiere of Oklahoma! on Broadway. Hawke is nominated for best actor by the Oscars. In my review, I called Hawke's Hart "extraordinarily good company.
The A24 romance Eternity (Friday, Feb. 13 on Apple TV) stars Elizabeth Olsen in an afterlife conundrum. In a kind of weigh-station purgatory, she must choose how to spend her afterlife, with her longtime husband (Miles Teller) or her first love (Callum Turner), who died in World War II. In her review, AP Film Writer Lindsey Bahr called Eternity imaginative and shrewdly whimsical with an utterly charming cast.

Charli xcxs first full-length album since Brat summer came and went is the soundtrack to Emerald Fennells starry adaptation of Emily Bront禱s Wuthering Heights, out Friday. It might be wise not to expect the neon-chartreuse of her rave work; the first taste came in the form of House featuring John Cale, an industrial, gothic introduction to the romance. That song, to quote Charli quoting Cale, is both elegant and brutal. Other moments contain Charlis signatures: autotuned vocals, unexpected production, shackled pop hooks. If that resonates, begin with Wall of Sound and Chains of Love.
