hell, he may look just a tad like him, but he sounds nothing like Errol. Errol Flynn was and will always be unique and inimitable. notice how noone's ever really tried to do an impression of him and succeed.

Interesting performance from talented Jude Law in the role of Errol Flynn..it makes us realise how much we miss Errol 's sense of fun and sheer joy of living..excellent portrayal from Jude Law in a small role which could not possibly show Errol's complex personality but fascinating and an outstanding performance. Thanks for the posting!!

@ASacredSpirit The peas may look a bit " nasty " because in the first 50 minutes of the film scenes only appear in shades of red and cyan's and blues, and greens are rendered blue.
This technique was used in the film to emulate the look of early bipack colour movies.
My friend told me this was a very good movie and she was right. She had to watch it in her Psychology studies and said the OCD elements were very well acted and portrayed.
I mean no disrespect to Jude Law - but Errol Flynn was a one-time phenomenon and Law's portrayal of him here is shameful! The accent is terrible - nobody seemed to notice that Flynn had brownish/hazel eyes - not blue! Also, if you watch interviews with Flynn, he was often withheld and charming without standing up every two seconds and otherwise just generally behaving as if he suffered from Parkinson's! Really, for all that Flynn introduced to film history - he deserved a better hail than this.
Law didn't sound anywhere near like Flynn, and his features were a bit too effeminate. He came across simply as irritating, giving no depth into the character -of course Errol COULD resort to childish behavior at times *smiles* - but this makes it seem as though this was always the way he behaved (which most definitely wasn't perfect) . However this wasn't about Flynn and you couldn't expect much given the time allotted. The actress playing Kate Hepburn did very well, however.
@daxeboy9 , didn't know being gay was tantamount with being effeminate; I'm not debating as to whether Flynn was was gay or not. He tried EVERYTHING so he undoubtedly tried a guy or two (maybe more)-- that's something most of his admirers probably wouldn't want to admit.. We weren't there, and I don't care if he was, who gives a frogs fat ass, LOL... only anyone with a problem with it does. I still say Law doesn't look or act like him and I'm sticking by that.
Before I observe a film I have to know who's in it. If there is an actor I like in a film, I'll watch it. But anyways when I read the back of the case for this film I noticed Jude Law's name. But after observing the film, I was disappointed that he was only in one scene. But overall I loved the movie. The cast was fantastic. As was Jude Law's three minute twenty second cameo.
Started out like a brit trying to do an american accent, morphed into a wierd transatlantic drawl and then at one point a bit of Australian crept in !? it wasn`t very convincing
Flynn was a lot of things, but what does that have to do with it? I also think Beckinsale was terrible as Ava! They chose looks over talent, unlike Blanchett and DiCaprio who are fine actors.
Cameo of JL was really only cameo, but thank you for sharing, otherwise I will never botter too see it . I can't stand Leonardo as a actor, unfortunatly (for me because he play in rather decent movies)so it's too much for me
Sorry for late post. I saw Leonardo in Romeo&Juliet (nice work of classic theme), What eats Gilbert Grape (for Johnny Depp), The boy's live (Robert DeNiro), The Quick and the Dead (for Russel Crowe),Total Eclipse (becouse it's famous play, and Agnieszka Holland was a director but it was terrible compare to my expactation, I saw some incsenisation, other actor in roles). tbc
Marvin's Room (for Diane Keaton and Meryl Streep) Celebrity (Woody Allen and amazing Charlize Theron), Titanic (it was too famous so I watch it in tv to know why), The Man in the Iron Mask (I love Dumas Three Muskieters) , The Beach (director,once again, Danny Boyle who once done the Trainspotting), tbc
and Gang of New York (I'm fan of Daniel Day Lewis work) and that was final film for me, but my husband like Aviatar. The Departed has good reviews and I saw original and it was good movie. If you like Leonardo I think you will enjoy all of them.
omg i totally new it was jude law everyone told me it wasn't but i was rite i really dont watch movies wit jude law bcuz theres something wrong wit me lol anyways hes goign to b n my fav stories ever wit robert downing jr sherlock holmes
Cate's look at 1:58 reveals all. She gives a slight smirk at Leo's disgust with his spoiled food. She pities him, but she also just fell in love with him. That's great acting.
i think jude law gets flynn's voice just right actually. sure he doesnt look like him but he does a good job. cate is just like hepburn, and ofcourse dicaprio is brilliant as always
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i feel like that whole conversation is wrong. Flynn would never be able to coax Olivia de Havilland and Joan Fontaine to go anywhere together. They hated each other. PLus I think Cate overacted Kate. And Law was a horrible flynn
I could relate to this movie. I have OCD and it drives me nuts. However, I'm not so much afraid of getting contaminated by germs myself, as I'm afraid of contaminating others. It's like a responsibility thing.
LOL! No, I mean I always wash my hands and make sure I'm germ free...not because I'm afraid of getting contaminated, but because I'm afraid others will get contaminated by me...and then it would be my fault. Kind of silly, but it's hard for me to draw the line between what's rational and what's irrational.
It would be interesting to know what 'triggers' the condition in people? There must be some catalyst for developing such obsessive behaviour...even if it varies from person to person.
There are certain environmental "triggers", depending on what the person fears the most, I think. In this movie, Howard Hughes seemed to have a fear of getting sick or contaminated. Thus he developed a fear of germs. He also had certain rituals that he made people do when they brought him food and stuff.
OCD is said to be caused by a chemical imbalance, but the environmental triggers tend to aggravate the situation.
Yes. That is correct, but I'm referring to the few seconds before this particular clip starts where he demands to the waiter that he bring his steak accompanied with "exactly twelve peas". So that's why I think, at this point, his compulsion may have been more about the number of peas than the germs. Plus he drank after Hepburn, so I don't think he had progressed into a full on germaphobe at this point.
Perhaps he drank after Hepburn because he felt safer drinking after someone he was close with. Or maybe it was a mistake in the movie. Then again, people with OCD don't always act rationally either.
Well with OCD the hand washing isn't nessesarily about germs and cleanliness as it is about the repitition, the compulsion to get things exactly as his brain is telling him they need to be. So with the peas, it was probably because he messed up the order of his plate and things like that really unsettled his mind.
Excuse me, but you know anyone who can pull of a Hepburn accent? Cate did an excellent job on it. And of course, it's not critics to judge to see if Cate's performance was accurate or not, but those who know Hepburn best. And by the way, Hepburn's family approved of Cate's performance. (Check yt videos of Cate on The Aviator) Do your research before criticizing someone's work. You're just going to look like a fool.. just like now.
I noticed that President Franklin D. Roosevelt had an accent sort of like Hepburn. I guess it was considered elegant to talk like that back then...almost like a British accent. In the old days, people like President McKinnely used to actually roll their R's. I heard a recording on youtube of Thomas Edison doing the same.

she actually a modern-day katherine hepburn.she has quite similiar type with katherine hepburn.apart from the quality and career they both have...
If you might gonna say that george clooney was the next generation of Cary Grant,i would like to say cate is the closest thing to be katherine hepburn.they both even have a same style as well : girls and boys going on..don't you think?
This was a BRILLIANT movie. During this whole scene I was holding my breath, expecting Mr. Hughes to have an outburst at Flynn. Movies that make you nervous like that deserve awards.
Methinks Hughes got OCD. Needs his peas separate and numbered. Just give him one more Jude! Cate is really the kickass impressionist, taking on Hepburn and Bob Dylan...
This scene was absolutely flawless. When I saw The Aviator on the screen I was expecting a somber character study of Hughes with good acting by the principals, so I was really surprised at its humor and scope, a little of which is seen here.
No doubt thats what Flynn was like. Arrogant, brash, fighting and boozing

Yes. That is correct, but I'm referring to the few seconds before this particular clip starts where he demands to the waiter that he bring his steak accompanied with "exactly twelve peas". So that's why I think, at this point, his compulsion may have been more about the number of peas than the germs. Plus he drank after Hepburn, so I don't think he had progressed into a full on germaphobe at this point.

True.

Actually, after I watched it again, I'm inclined to agree that it WAS the germs...

Perhaps he drank after Hepburn because he felt safer drinking after someone he was close with. Or maybe it was a mistake in the movie. Then again, people with OCD don't always act rationally either.

True :)

i think it was quite obvious he meant to drink that after hepburn.

sorry I made a mistake there (correctly spelled Flynn).

Well with OCD the hand washing isn't nessesarily about germs and cleanliness as it is about the repitition, the compulsion to get things exactly as his brain is telling him they need to be. So with the peas, it was probably because he messed up the order of his plate and things like that really unsettled his mind.

Excuse me, but you know anyone who can pull of a Hepburn accent? Cate did an excellent job on it. And of course, it's not critics to judge to see if Cate's performance was accurate or not, but those who know Hepburn best. And by the way, Hepburn's family approved of Cate's performance. (Check yt videos of Cate on The Aviator) Do your research before criticizing someone's work. You're just going to look like a fool.. just like now.

I noticed that President Franklin D. Roosevelt had an accent sort of like Hepburn. I guess it was considered elegant to talk like that back then...almost like a British accent. In the old days, people like President McKinnely used to actually roll their R's. I heard a recording on youtube of Thomas Edison doing the same.

cate blanchett = katharine hepburn! Fantastic..
she actually a modern-day katherine hepburn.she has quite similiar type with katherine hepburn.apart from the quality and career they both have...
If you might gonna say that george clooney was the next generation of Cary Grant,i would like to say cate is the closest thing to be katherine hepburn.they both even have a same style as well : girls and boys going on..don't you think?

and can you think another actress who possibly could play katherine hepburn better than cate?
You moronic loser! why don't you just bring yourself into hollywood and feel the actual work there instead of complaining nonsense crap!
you must be a poor low class life person.i pity you.You even barely can talk in proper language..

Blanchett is amazing! She's the only one that can pull of Katherine Hepburn, and DiCaprio was great!

This was a BRILLIANT movie. During this whole scene I was holding my breath, expecting Mr. Hughes to have an outburst at Flynn. Movies that make you nervous like that deserve awards.

Methinks Hughes got OCD. Needs his peas separate and numbered. Just give him one more Jude! Cate is really the kickass impressionist, taking on Hepburn and Bob Dylan...

This scene was absolutely flawless. When I saw The Aviator on the screen I was expecting a somber character study of Hughes with good acting by the principals, so I was really surprised at its humor and scope, a little of which is seen here.
