Aviator, The

Martin Scorsese / US, DE, 2004 / 170 min.

A visually overwhelming biopic of Howard Hughes (Leonardo DiCaprio), the tragic Hollywood producer, aviator and womaniser. Scorsese portrays the man who spent the family fortune on his two great passions: film and flying, as a tragic Icarus figure who flew too close to the sun. Scorsese’s mastery shows itself in the styling and in the gripping action scenes.
