About
The Aviator

This film is an incredible chronicle of a man who created a world all to his own. On the commentary track Scorsese talks about Icarus his interpretation being that Howard couldn't escape the labyrinth because the labyrinth was himself. This makes me think of the scene just before the ending when Noah Dietrich (John C. Riley) tells Howard " but Howard everybody works for you". They all did accept for the woman in his life for me it's what made it so extraordinary to see him so up against Hepburn, senator brewster , or that spruce goose.
