Golden Globe winner Richard Gere stars in the THE HOAX, the true story of Clifford Irving, a writer who had the biggest scoop of the 20th century – or did he? Whilst our current era of constantly erupting scandals has become a staple of modern culture – one of the fastest and most irresistible routes to fame, fortune and adoration in a world that loves a good story, sometimes at any cost – the modern hoax was kicked off by perhaps the most spectacular swindle of them all: the Clifford Irving/Howard Hughes hoax of the early 1970s.
Set for rental DVD release on 28 January 2008 and retail release on 11 February 2008, THE HOAX is a fascinating portrayal of a man whose career is going nowhere until he embarks on the greatest con of the century.
Joining Richard Gere in an all-star cast is Alfred Molina, Marcia Gay, Hope Davis, Julie Delpy, Stanley Tucci and Eli Wallach. Directed by Academy Award nominated Lasse, THE HOAX is a slick, smart and funny escapade that is guaranteed to entertain you from beginning to end.
Synopsis
In 1971, writer Clifford Irving told an incredible whopper – one that became one of the most audacious and outrageous hoaxes ever perpetrated on the media and American public. Claiming to have obtained Howard Hughes’ long sought-after memoirs, Irving pulled the wool over the entire publishing industry’s eyes, and nearly made off with major cash and worldwide fame, until his clever yarn unravelled into a serious crime.
Question: Richard Gere plays the role of ...
Answer: Clifford Irving
Good Luck
