Tucker: The Man and His Dream
I have watched Tucker, the man and his dream which involves an ambitious innovator, Preston Tucker, deprived of his dream to make future automobile vehicles.

However, things take a turn when he partners himself with Abe Karatz to raise finance through stock. Later they acquired Dodge Chicago plant to start their manufacture. Their initial opening of the corporation attracted many shareholders and the public with enthusiasm. As the manufacturing begins, Tucker is tasked to advertise his model by the board of directors. When was away, Tucker’s safety design is eliminated by the main shareholders of the corporation.
