The “powerful” movie Ron Howard has refused to watch since 2001: “I was literally in awe”Some movies are so good that you don’t want to watch them again, just in case they don’t hit the same way the second time around. Ron Howard feels your pain, which is why he’s avoiding one of them. There’s no right or wrong answer, but we do at least know which side of the debate Howard falls on. Aye, like those Academy Awards you won for ‘Best Picture’ and ‘Best Director’, no doubt. Admittedly, history hasn’t been too kind to the John Nash biopic, and it’s now regarded as one of the weaker ‘Best Picture’ winners of the 21st century, and maybe even beyond.
