Default THE AVIATOR

Did it appear suitable for 11 and 13 year olds?

I saw a screening of "The Aviator" , Martin Scorsese's biography of
Howard Hughes, with Leonardo DeCaprio, is due to be released in
December.

Hughes is a fascinating charater, but this movie is also a great
aviation movie. The film focuses on Hughes life between 1927, when he
directed his first movie "Hell's Angels", to 1947 when he successfully
flew the H-4 "Hercules" (Spruce Goose) and then went into seculsion.

There are some great flying sequences, including a speed trial of his
H-1 racer, and a spectacular squence when Hughes crashes his prototype
spyplane, the XF-11, into Beverly Hills.

Look for it in your local theater on December 17th. You won't be
disappointed.
