Yes, saw The Aviator at the cinema. However Kimmio, I don't get the connection between Trump and Hughes.

Eccentric rich guy with political aspirations is about as far as it goes, really. As I said, Hughes reclusiveness alone is a major difference from Trump.
 
The similarity is that both held (hold) all but themselves in contempt. The lived only for themselves, and their own egos. Hughes, like Trump, also had a obsession about large-breasted women.

As riviting as that information is :rolleyes:........Maybe you could sell that article to the National Enquirer.
 
They had the story at the time. It was connected to a film Hughes made about Billy the Kid - and I it featured a women (whose name I have forgotten) with - well, you had to see it. Very raunchy stuff for the time.
 
I've been reading that he's been spending a lot of time alone - isolating himself in the WH - watching (and yelling at) multiple TV screens - and that he's not in a happy place. That may or may not be true...but I can see it happening. Howard Stern - one of his few real friends - said after Trump was elected, he was concerned what the pressure and social isolation would do to him.

Interesting Kimmio. Where have you been reading that?
 
Of course. Both Liberal and mainstream press lie all the time. We all know that a man of Trump's intellect and character would never crack up.
What, by the way, do you call the liberal, American press? I don't know of any such creature.
And do you know what 'liberal' and 'conservative means? Betcha don't. very few people do, including most liberals and conservatives.
 
Also check the web for speeches by Hitler. They are remarkably similar to those of Trump - especially the racist part - but not only that part.

Thanks, I'd rather watch speeches on YouTube that inspire hope.

Good news is always more true than bad Nous ... alas it does come down the tube ... and without liberal move you get struck as a sitting 8-Ba'aL! Eternal optimism ... why we were sent here to observe how it works as we are lead to believe from politicians!

A virtual funny ... or just "och" man ... an ode to the past unseen ... back way off, as recessive, to see it! From some dippy person ... submerged in human flaw etudes ... what we've screwed up as Jack!

Jayne Russell in The Outlaw maybe?

That would be my guess as well. It wasn't a great movie - but it was a weird movie. Graeme's right that most people remember it for Jayne Russell, whose "assets" (for lack of a better word) were quite front and centre (all in a way that was shocking but within the code of the day.) I remember it more for what to me came across as a 3-cornered homo-erotic relationship. I usually diss those who see such things in classic movies as deliberately reading something back into a classic movie that wasn't intended. But to me I thought it was pretty obvious in The Outlaw. In this telling of the story, Doc Holliday jilted Pat Garrett for Billy the Kid. In the scenes between any combination of the three of them, that's really the sense you get of their relationship. It's truly bizarre to watch, which is perhaps not surprising for a movie produced and directed by Howard Hughes.

I'd agree that there are some similarities between Hughes and Trump, but I wouldn't exaggerate them. Both are (or were in Hughes' case) a bit off the wall (kindly put) but they've gone in opposite directions: Hughes obsessively reclusive; Trump (while he spends a lot of time alone in the White House perhaps) nevertheless a very public persona who absolutely loves and seeks out the spotlight and the cheers of the crowds (and who I also think doesn't mind and perhaps even deliberately provokes the jeers because they're also attention.)

One thing I have heard from a variety of sources is that Trump is something of a germaphobe - as was Hughes.
