The Hoax

Film Description

Richard Gere gives one of the best performances of his career in The Hoax, based on the true story of Clifford Irving, a struggling writer who convinces his publishers that he has landed the scoop of the century - access to reclusive billionaire Howard Hughes. With the help of his writer friend Dick Suskind (Alfred Molina), he tries to pull off the greatest literary hoax of the 20th century: Hughes' biography. Cider House Rules director Lasse Hallstrom deftly handles the complex material, which is headlined by a strong cast.
