What ever happened to Amelia Earhart?
The mystery of the aviatrix's disappearance during a round-the-globe flight in 1937 has yet to be solved, but double-Oscar winner Hilary Swank is diving into her life story in Mira Nair's new film, Amelia.
With Richard Gere and Ewan McGregor along for the ride, the biopic has all the elements—big stars, period costumes and gorgeous scenery—that should make it a contender for the big movie awards.
But does that make you want to see it—or is this the type of story best left to History Channel documentaries? Sound off in the comments.
