About
You can watch The Aviator (2004) for free on Hoopla, or buy on Apple TV+.
A biopic depicting the life of filmmaker and aviation pioneer Howard Hughes from 1927 to 1947, during which time he became a successful film producer and an aviation magnate, while simultaneously growing more unstable due to severe obsessive-compulsive disorder.
This sweeping biopic trades typical historical dryness for a frantic, golden-hued fever dream of ambition and madness. The camera races alongside vintage planes and manic internal monologues to capture a man losing his mind while building an empire.
