MOVIES: Ethan Hawke on "Blue Moon," and taking nothing for grantedThe songwriting team of Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart helped put the "great" in the Great American Songbook. But Hart's heavy drinking led to the end of their partnership. In the new movie "Blue Moon," Oscar-nominee Ethan Hawke plays a heartbroken Hart reduced to watching Rodgers gain even greater fame collaborating with Oscar Hammerstein II. Hawke talks with Tracy Smith about the challenging role of Hart; his own youthful ambitions; and about joining the faces on the walls of the legendary Broadway watering hole Sardi's.

THESE UNITED STATES: The Marshall PlanAfter World War II, much of Europe lay in ruins, with food supplies running thin, and communism on the march. Secretary of State George C. Marshall argued that, rather than retreat into isolationism, the United States should help its European allies – and enemies – rebuild. Seth Doane reports on how the Marshall Plan not only helped stabilize post-war Europe, but also ushered in an economic boom for America – and a new era of cooperation among nations.
