The Hoax

Wendy and I saw the Hoax this last weekend. Definitely two thumbs up from us. The movie tells the story of Clifford Irving who wrote an 'authorized autobiography' of Howard Hughes--which per the title was a hoax. Richard Gere portrays Mr. Irving while Alfred Molina plays his friend and researcher Dick Suskind. Marcia Gay Harden was so great as Mr. Irving's wife that I didn't even recognized her until half way through the movie. It will probably be forgotten by the time of the Oscars, but it was really a fine grown up movie. (No exploding spider-based spaceships here!)
