THE AVIATOR
Herald rating: * * * *
Traces the life of movie producer and aviation nut Howard Hughes from when he was a Hollywood player in the late 1920s, to 1946, when he was courting actresses like Ava Gardner and Katharine Hepburn and starting to display symptoms of OCD. It's a beautiful looking film and an epic story, although Leonardo DiCaprio is miscast as Hughes. Cate Blanchett is outstanding as Hepburn and the flight sequences are inspiring. (2004)
