The full movie theater I was in starting laughing, and
hootin and hollerin when he said it.
“
Reminds me of when I saw “The Aviator” in Santa Monica.
When DiCaprio (as Howard Hughes) gets into a discussion with Hepburn’s family
at their nice home...and “Hughes” says “You never have to worry about
money because you have plenty” (or something like that)...
even in liberal Santa Monica, the audience responded with applause and
laughter.
Pleased me, but freaked me out for a moment!
I saw it on TV and loved that scene. Hepburn’s family were wealthy CT WASP marxists. I would suspect today she would be a part time lesbian because it would be considered fashionable like marxism at the time.
Hughes actually would build things and create value to society. He was no angel but what his companies did in aviation, science and especially medicine has been staggering.
