I just saw this movie. I thought it was pretty good. Leonardo Di Caprio was very good as Howard Hughes. I imagine this movie will bring home a few Oscars, as this is the type of movie Hollywood goes for.
I finally saw this movie today. It's a good film. DiCaprio did a great job. He deserves his Oscar nomation. I like Cate Blanchett as Katharine Hepburn, too. She definitely had the accent down.
Scorsese has never won an Oscar. Since Eastwood did for Unforgiven, I think that clears the way for Scorsese to win this year.
No mention was made of that last love. In the film, Ava Gardner is his last love. Keep in mind, the film does not cover his whole life. It ends around 1947.
Thanks for the info Antilles. As for Terri Moore she should have been mentioned because he married her before he went bananas all together. I remember she was fighting for the money.
