Just wonderful

Rating: 9/10 (27 December 2004)

I cannot say enough good things about this film. It is wonderfully acted and the direction is top notch. Dicaprio does an excellent job in his portrayal of Howard Hughes and Cate Blanchett is truly perfect casting as Catherine Hepburn. The photography is so reminiscent of the old techni-color films and lends so much to the time you almost get swept up in the film which is written so well. It is quite long but really truly worth it. If you love old Hollywood run out and see it you will LOVE it! The flight scenes as so beautiful and so well crafted that I want to see Scorsese do something else relating to flight to see what else he can do. This really should win him his first Best Director Oscar and achievement is well deserved.
