The Aviator

Glad I saw this movie yesterday.

Guess, this movie was much better than his earlier one 'Gangs of New York'. Surprising how this biopic missed out in Oscars in Best Picture and Director categories. And Leonardo DiCaprio was quite outstanding in his role.

The movie had lots of trivia. Surprising how one man pushed aviation to what it is now. 'Obsessive compulsive disorder' exhibited by DiCaprio is hard to understand.

In India, the aviation industry got the biggest push from 'JRD TATA'. Guess, a movie about JRD should be made. JRD was be one real disappointed man since Indian bureaucracy is far worse than any USA. And inspite of all this bureaucracy, JRD still managed to do miracles for Indian Aviation industry.

Hoping to see 'Million Dollar Baby' and find out what makes it better than 'The Aviator'. I remember Leonardo in an interview saying that, "It is a joke that Martin Scorcese not getting an Oscar for 'best director'". I believe DiCaprio is right!
