The Mysterious Howard
Hughes - VHS Video
He was the most reclusive, elusive and downright bizarre
tycoon of the 20th century. A famed pilot, film pioneer,
gambling mogul and industrialist, Howard Hughes had
the money and the imagination to pull off any scheme
he might imagine. The Mysterious Howard Hughes follows
the dapper Hughes from his childhood penchant for
tricks to his strange, isolated final years and beyond.
Relive the surreal events surrounding his death, when
the FBI insisted on fingerprinting the body purported
to be Hughes in order to establish its identity. At
that time he had not been seen for decades! Hughes
scholars examine the clues and illuminate the suspicions
many have about the circumstances of his death. And
learn of the notorious hoaxes Hughes masterminded,
from the twisted masquerade that helped hasten his
girlfriend's divorce to his incognito stint as a baggage
handler at American Airlines before launching his
own aviation empire. This video pulls back the many
layers of mystery surrounding one of the most compelling
and confounding men of recent history. 50 minutes. |
