The Rocketeer (film)/Heartwarming

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • In a blink and you'll miss it scene near the end there's these two kids. Both pretending to be the Rocketeer.
  • Valentine, of all people, wishing the Rocketeer good luck.
  • Towards the end, when Hughes asks Cliff what it was like flying with the rocketpack:

Cliff: It was the closest I'll ever get to heaven, Mr. Hughes. (glances at Jenny) Well... maybe not.

    • So after all Cliff did, Howard Hughes gives him a new Gee Bee airplane in the end.

Cliff: I didn't even get a chance to thank him.
Peevey: You don't have to, son. He saw the look on your face.
