Melvin and Howard (1980) starring Paul LeMat, Jason Robards, Mary Steenburgen. Loser Melvin Dummar (LeMat) gives a ride -- and lends a quarter -- to an old stranger (Robards) who claims to be Howard Hughes. Years later, after Hughes dies, a will turns up which names Melvin as an heir to Hughes' estate. The "climax" is anticlimactic, and this movie is only intermittently interesting. Some critics rave over this film, but I didn't like it that much. The subtitles are pretty good. Grade: B-
