Film Meme - Day 2 ... Just Catching Up With Missing Days

Day 01 - Sequel that should not have been made ... The Trail of the Pink Panther

Day 02 - Movie that you think more people should see

The film I have chosen doesn't have a You Tube link - so you just get a photograph of "the" star!  The film is Moonshot, and is about the landing on the moon of Apollo 11.

I chose it, not just because it's James, but it shows the sheer tenacity of human spirit ... Those men were brave, clever ... and mad!  Their wives had a tough life, as well.

When you see it, you are reminded that man got to the moon using their brains ... no major computers ... and no guarantee that they would return.  How's that for a positive show of the true meaning of human spirit.

 

For me, I watched the event in my back garden with mum and dad ... and 40 years later, I watched the film with Mum and dad ... and without them knowing who the actor was who portrayed Buzz ldrin!
