This movie is a true story of a eccentric aviation pioneer, Howard Hughes. Howard(Leonardo)directs and produces movie. It is successful and he joins Hollywood celebrities. His lover is a star actress Catherine(Cate). Also he focuses his energy and passion on aviation. His airplane's speed sets a new world record one after another. He always creates a sensation. Everything seems go well, but something begins to be wrong...

I admired Howard Hughes' passion for aviation. He never give up his dream no matter what happens. It seemed as if he were possessed by something. I want passion like him. Also, Leonardo's act is highlight of this film! He performs very well!

This film's theme is human love and racial discrimination. It depicts various daily life of people who live in society,Los Angeles, infested with racial discrimination.

This movie surprised me at first because the air was filled with discriminative words and behavior. But this movie depicts human clash and connection through various races. So it has sad and painful part, but I can say this is heart-warming movie. I felt something refreshed after watching.And also I was made to think about racial discrimination and human. It seems that I was able to see real American society. I strongly recommend this movie!!
