The Aviator

The biopic tells the story of Howard Hughes, a pioneering entrepreneur who made a name for himself in the film industry and aviation. From his early days as owner of RKO Pictures to his later years as a renowned aircraft designer and founder of TWA, Hughes was a risk-taker who spent fortunes on experimental planes and clashed with his rival Juan Trippe. Despite facing challenges, including accusations of war profiteering and struggles with mental illness, Hughes remained a formidable figure in his life, including his long-term relationship with Katharine Hepburn.
