Melvin and Howard

 

USA 1980, 95 minutes
Dir. Jonathan Demme
Rating: [M]
Genres: Classics, Comedy

Feat. Paul Le Mat, Jason Sr. Robards

 

Aroview: Low-key gem of a road-movie in which yokel Paul Le Mat (AMERICAN GRAFFITI) rescues a grizzled tramp on a desert highway one night, who turns out later to be disoriented millionaire Howard Hughes (Jason Robards). Based on a true incident, this veers off quickly into a Coen-Brothers-like saga of eccentric family squabbles and pop-culture references.
