Amelia stars two-time Academy Award winner Hilary Swank as Amelia Earhart, the legendary aviatrix and enigmatic symbol of American freedom and determination, whose unique mixture of bravery and charm and genuine lust for life led her to lead a life that was anything but ordinary for a woman of the 1930’s.
Earhart’s early aviation triumphs and meteoric rise to fame and fortune were propelled along by her tempestuous partnership and eventual marriage to publisher George Putnam (Richard Gere). Bound by mutual ambition, admiration and, ultimately a great love, their bond could not be broken even with her brief passionate affair with fellow pilot Gene Vidal (Ewan McGregor).
Never content to live her life by anyone else’s standards, for better or worse, Earhart charted her own course in life as in flight, and Amelia chronicles the events that shaped the life of a woman who was to become the icon of female fearlessness for the 20th century.
“Amelia is a film with thrills and emotional action in equal measure.” –Andrew L. Urban, Urban Cinephile
