Did anyone recognize the picture of Tesla in the court room? Was that intentional, you know, Tesla was to Edison as Tucker was to the Big Three? I found it quite interesting.
shareRobert Goddard's picture was there too. It was to symbolize great men with "out of the box" thinking, just like Preston Tucker.

Yeah I enjoyed the reference as well.
share"Did anyone recognize the picture of Tesla in the court room? Was that intentional, you know, Tesla was to Edison as Tucker was to the Big Three?"
I saw the picture (Tesla's my hero), but disagree with the analogy. Edison was a hack compared to Tesla. Edison couldn't comprehend most of Tesla's ideas. Tucker was an innovator, but the big three could innovate, dictate, and make money.
Now what we need is a top flight movie about Tesla...
But the big tree couldnt not innovate and didnt understood Tuckers ideas either. For example the need for seatbelts or rear engine car was uncomprehensible to them.
