So I remember when I first heard that they were making a biopic about Howard Hughes. I spent the better part of my life as an aerospace engineer, so I wanted to see that film. Then I heard it was Leo DiCaprio playing the lead role. But I got past it, because I really wanted to see the film. I just decided to wait until Blu-ray, but that's what I do for most movies. Until I got the movie home, I didn't read anything about the movie so as not to spoil anything.
ReplyDeleteI get home. Pop in the disc. I have the popcorn ready. And the first scene appears.
A naked young boy standing in front an adult woman getting bathed.
WTF?
Howard Hughes lived an incredible life. His mysophobia was hardly the most important part of his life, but even if important enough to cover; it didn't need a nude scene of a boy old enough to wash himself being bathed by an adult woman. I was taken out of the story, because my first thought was not just who thought to include the scene, but the poor kid and actress being asked to film it. That's their screen time, and it is a scene that could have been left on the floor. Actually, it never needed to be shot.
So who thinks to include a scene like this? I think we will soon get our answer.
I concur
