I saw it last night...

198.81.26.40

...and while I don't think it was the best picture of the year (Million Dollar Baby was), I don't agree with all of your criticism either.

DiCaprio was pretty good in the part and I agree with your boy/man comment, but Benicio Del Toro - come on - he's not even close.

Blanchett was very effective as Hepburn as was Beckinsale as Ava Gardner.

Hughes' genius was definitely not given short shrift.

The scene where his test plane crashes in Beverly Hills was very effectively done. A woman two seats down from me in the theater was about to come over the row in front of her, she was so distraught. I heard someone else crying in the seats above me.

And to the rest of your criticism, I say "artistic license" - who cares if it's completely accurate - overall I suspect the picture was accurate enough.

I predict Scorcese will win Best Director.
