A Movie That Can Soar On Its Own

I was pleasantly surprised with this film. Hillary Swank's interpretation of Earhart is spot-on. This movie serves well as a period piece to celebrate Earhart's true love...that of flying. The addition of Richard Gere to the cast adds a certain refinement of character, not only of the part he plays (I think one of his better performances in this one), but also affects the entire movie itself. This movie will probably do better in DVD rentals and sales, and on the pay movie channels. This was not a "barnstormer" of a film, because Earhart was not a "barnstorming" lady, but a very charming and determined one. I believe this movie succeeds in displaying both qualities remarkably well.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
