That's just what I was thinking too. I would pay to see a movie done from his point of view.
As for your observation about Catherine Zeta Jones, I would agree, except that CZJ doesn't show evidence of HL's intelligence. The only movie I've seen her in is "Boom Town" (to which I referred earlier), and in that movie her brainyness came across as a very subtle sense that she was just having fun, that she didn't take any of it seriously. CZJ doesn't seem (to me) to have that.
Obviously, it's also possible that I'm reading into HL's performance things that were learned from the historical record. If so, I plead guilty, but it only shows how a man's appreciation of a the beauty of a woman is influenced by factors other than surface appearance.
