Did you hear about the new Howard Hughes movie, The Aviator? It appears to be doing quite well despite the odd requirements for the audience.
When you get your ticket you also recieve a spray bottle of bleach and a surgical mask.
In addition, there is a speaker phone set up at the front of the theater from which all of the Hughes lines eminate
Will theatres be giving a door prize for the longest finger/toe nails?
I might go see The Aviator. Howard Hughes is an intriguing personality, and I'd like to know a bit more about him...if this movie is at least a bit accurate, it might be worth the admission price.
Well, I guess that just wouldn't fly
LOL!! Just read a biography of Hughes' last years. Just when I thought the guy was a total whacko he turns into a mad genius. Just when I was convinced he was a mad genius he turns into a total whacko.
Small world example: My personal connection to Howard Hughes: my wife's grandmother owned the Purity Drug in Hobbs, New Mexico. She used to make dinner (chicken sandwiches) for Hughes Junior and Senior during the 1920's and '30's. Hobbs was an oil boomtown.
