Aviator is very good but VERY long. Gotta give the Leo credit, kid can act a bit. Fantastic job by Cate Blanchett as Kate Hepburn. And Scorsese just turns Oliver Stone & Alexander into a popsicle, director-wise.
Both HHughes & Big A were larger than life figgas who's bios would appear almost unfilmable. Marty very wisely picked a slice while Ollie Conspiracy flailed wildly all over the place.
As for the second round of Sideways, I first seen it when it came out a couple months ago and loved it. Buddy of mine hadn't seen it yet so we went yesterday. Place was packed. Holiday obvo had something to do w/it, but ya still gotta love word-of-mouth. I liked it even more the 2nd time which is very rare for me; Apocalypse Now and mebbe 5 or 6 others fall into that category.
If any of you who liked Sideways haven't seen Election or American Splendor yet, run don't walk to the vid store.
