About this product

Product Information

Martin Scorsese's THE AVIATOR is a lavish spectacle of a motion picture that harks back to Hollywood's Golden Era in telling the story of Howard Hughes, one of 20th-century America's most pioneering and influential figures. Starring Leonardo DiCaprio as the eccentric billionaire, Scorsese's biopic concentrates on Hughes's life between the 1920s and '40s, when he made striking contributions to both the film and aviation industries. At only 25 years of age, Hughes directed the most expensive film ever made up to that point, HELL'S ANGELS (1930), which Scorsese gleefully recreates here in all its sprawling, audacious glory. At the same time, he became known as an unabashed playboy, bedding the likes of Jean Harlow (singer Gwen Stefani), Ava Gardner (Kate Beckinsale), and Katherine Hepburn (a brilliant Cate Blanchett). In the mid-'30s, he turned his attention to the aviation industry, where he quickly became world-renowned for shattering speed and distance records. He also continued to test the limits of flight technology, building bigger, faster, and stronger aircrafts. All the while, he struggled with an obsessive-compulsive disorder that sent him into a full-fledged tailspin after a near-fatal plane crash. The film concludes with Hughes being called before the Senate in 1947 to defend himself against the nefarious Senator Owen Brewster (Alan Alda), who accused Hughes of taking money from the United States government during wartime.Stunningly photographed by Robert Richardson, Scorsese's nearly three-hour drama features an impassioned performance by DiCaprio, who is also credited as an executive producer. Although she appears in less than a third of the film, Blanchett delivers a performance that cements her status as one of the finest actresses ever to appear on the big screen.

    Timely message due to Howard Hughes childhood fears of quarantines

    Timely movie to watch during the corona virus pandemic. I didn't realize that such a big part of Howard Hughes' reclusive nature and paranoia was due to the quarantines his mother had told him about when he was young. There may be lessons for us to learn from this movie in approaching how to help children cope with the current pandemic so that they can not be adversely impacted so much. Great movie overall-- despite some disturbing portrayals of Hughes' eccentric nature. There is often a fine line between genius and insanity. I have a personal connection to Howard Hughes in a way. My grandfather gave a young Mormon boy here in Salt Lake City his first (or one of his first) jobs and taught him to be honest, devoted and hard working. That young man eventually became Howard Hughes' ...

  • Interesting Story of an Aggressive Innovator!! 6/10

    A very aggressive, true story of the rise and fall of a famous billionaire aviator, movie producer, playboy, and businessman. Howard Hughes had a dream, and fought throughout his lifetime to fulfill his dream, after continuously being discouraged by society. His childhood dream was to fly the fastest planes ever built, make the biggest movies ever, and to be the richest man in the world. He suffered a life-time of obsessive compulsive disorder related to a germ-phobia, for which we found interesting. The movie is not filled with very much action and excitement, as it is more on the conservative side, therefore may not be of interests to all viewers, but is however very interesting from beginning to end. Interesting film in aspect of the early development of North American single-wing ...

  • THE AVIATOR (DVD, 2005)

    Interesting biopic about the life and times of Howard R. Hughes. He was a man driven by passions and great wealth, who in the early 20th century found himself in a the unique position of being in Hollywood, having the guts to buck the system, and both the audacious foresight and the money to make it work for him. Howard Hughes also harbored a lot of demons. His mother died young, and all indications are that she suffered from hypochondria, and passed that on to him too. Looking back today, he probably suffered from bipolar disorder, which could have accounted for his radical behavior and severe mood swings. He was a great womanizer which only goes to show that money can buy anything, and practically anyone. He had a great love for aviation and flying and through this he is best remembered. ...

  • Howard Hughes' story

    A decent movie about one of America's facinating personalities. Very convincing nostalgic look at the early twentieth century America. Dicaprio delivers a solid portrayal of Hughes. Cate Blanchett is wonderful, the Hughes/Hepburn dialog and interplay is very well done and entertaining as are many other scenes with Alan Alda and Alec Baldwin. The special features are also excellent, including the History Channel's "Howard Hughes Tech" feature. An entertaining and worthwhile DVD.
