Visionary. Lover. Dreamer. Fighter. Legend. Icon. AMELIA.

An extraordinary life of adventure, celebrity and continuing mystery comes to light in AMELIA, a vast, thrilling account of legendary aviation pioneer Amelia Earhart (two time Academy Award winner Hilary Swank).

After becoming the first woman to fly across the Atlantic, Amelia was thrust into a new role as America's sweetheart - the legendary "goddess of light," known for her bold, larger-than-life charisma. Yet, even with her global fame solidified, her belief in flirting with danger and standing up as her own, outspoken woman never changed. She was an inspiration to people everywhere, from First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt (Cherry Jones) to the men closest to her heart: her husband, promoter and publishing magnate George P. Putnam (Golden Globe winner Richard Gere), and her long time friend and lover, pilot Gene Vidal (Ewan McGregor). In the summer of 1937, Amelia set off on her most daunting mission yet: a solo flight around the world that she and George both anxiously foresaw as destined, whatever the outcome, to become one of the most talked-about journeys in history.

An inspiring movie for women. The romance and love between Amelia & George was simple and nice...unlike other movies. Hilary looked very plain, simple and thin but of course acted very well. Richard as usual was looking dashing....he’s aging well!

This is a good non-dry-history-book way of getting updated on history. I enjoy watching historical movies because I’m too lazy to read the books, & movies (the more accurate ones, anyway) help me remember my history better than studying any book can.

Give a rating of 3.5/5. Agree with conzill. Inspiring movie for all people not just women to chase your goals and ambition in life. Great acting by Hilary S (Amelia) and Richard Gere (George P.Putnam). Good movie to watch to motivate yourself.

To me, this is an inspiring movie for all women who has goals and ambitions since a child. Most people forget their dreams as they grew. This is definitely a story lifts people to recall what were their dreams and had they achieved/forgo?
