Film Review: An extraordinary life of adventure, celebrity and continuing mystery comes to life in Amelia, the new epic motion picture based on the life of aviator, Amelia Earhart. 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. In the summer of 1937, Amelia set off on her most daunting mission yet: a solo flight around the world that she foresaw as destined to become one of the most talked-about journeys in history. Starring two-time Academy Award winner, Hilary Swank, Amelia is a vast thrilling account of the legendary aviation pioneer.
