 Description
[Machine Translation] Directed by master filmmaker Russell Hallstrom and starring Richard Gere. The biggest scam of the century in U.S. history, in which a man sold a "fake biography" of the legendary millionaire Howard Hughes. Clifford Irving (Richard Gere), an unsuccessful writer, was having his new work rejected by publishers. One day, he finds himself in a tight spot when he tells his friend Andrea ( Hope Davis ) of McGraw-Hill Publishing that he has the "biggest story of the century" for her. I actually had no plan, but I came up with the idea of writing a fake autobiography of Howard Hughes, a wealthy but eccentric and unseen man. With the help of a commissioned letter that imitated Howard's handwriting, archival documents written by Dietrich, a close associate of Hughes, and Clifford's skillful storytelling interspersed with lies, they succeeded in deceiving McGraw-Hill Publishing Company's chairman and other people one after another. When Clifford finally receives his $1.1 million reward, he receives a document at his house showing Hughes' bribe payments to President Nixon and others. Clifford believes that this information was given to him by Howard, and he is determined to publish it in a book and change the world. However, Clifford's lies are slowly unraveled when Howard's legal advisor protests...
