Bless his heart, Ethan Hawke is looking like an old-ass Oliver Twist here, signing autographs for fans who are probably surprised he's still alive. He's also preparing to star in an upcoming film, entitled, "Real Men Cry." I'm sort of confused by the premise, but it's based on the life of actor/director, Brian Goodman, and his friendship with a man who is currently behind bars for armed robbery and is serving a 100-year sentence. Goodman was at one point serving time himself for assaulting an in-law, after he claims he learned the individual had been abusing a relative. It was in the late 90's that the Boston native formed a friendship with Donnie Wahlberg, began earning parts in local films and then the two collaborated on the script. According to Goodman, his time spent in prison was spent during a dark period in his life.

"I came from a broken home and was living in survival mode," he said. "I have three bullets in me, one in the back of my head."
The role of the two friends, Paulie and Brian, will be played by Ethan Hawke and Mark Ruffalo. Well, good for Ethan. This sounds like a role will put his gaunt, old-man looks to use.
