Howard Hughes, businessman, film producer and record-breaking aviator was one of the richest men in the world, but he is perhaps most remembered for his obsessional fears of contamination and strange decline into total reclusiveness.
This biographical documentary explores how a man, who in his youth had it all – intelligence, good looks, control of a multi-million-dollar company and Hollywood stars queueing up to make his acquaintance, could end his days hiding himself away, terrified of germs.
This video focusses on his four plane crashes and three serious car accidents to see what impact these had on the mind of a man once famous for his incisive thinking and shrewd business brain.
Could they have turned the handsome and adventurous billionaire into a bedraggled hermit?
Finding Out More
The best biographies I found were: Howard Hughes – His Life and Madness by Donald Barlett and James Steele and Howard Hughes - The Untold Story by Pat Broeske. I also found the memoirs of his assistant Noah Dietrich - Howard – the Amazing Mr Hughes, interesting if a little unbelievable in parts. I have listed these on my Amazon Store Page. https://www.amazon.com/shop/professor...
