Plot: A collection of footage taken from NASA''s nine missions to the moon.
An incredible documentary that is disappointingly short at only 79 minutes. Instead of going the normal documentary route with talking heads and captions and such, Al Reinert decides to just make a freeform montage-like documentary about the voyage to the moon. He uses only archival footage shot from the ground or by the astronauts themselves while they were in the spacecraft or on the surface of the moon. He also only uses the original radio transmissions or comments from the astronauts to give us the story, there is no traditional narration to guide us along. This creates a sometimes-confusing, but always fascinating film about how men felt about going to the moon. Some of the footage is breathtaking in its beauty and scope. This film should be seen by anybody with even a passing interest in the space program and/or the moon.
Apparently going through 80 hours worth of footage covering the Apollo space missions, director Al Reinert delivers a (somewhat) narratively driven recreation of man first landing on the moon in this amazing documentary. Mixing in interviews from many astronauts as well as footage from random missions, Reinert creates an awe-inspiring film, thanks to the footage captured by the astronauts themselves, which is just incredible and up there with some of the best cinematography. Would love to see it on the big screen, but for now Criterion's DVD (with some decent extras) will do.
A fantastic documentary with spectacular moon footage. Try arguing we faked the landings after watching this.
An excellent documentary on the Apollo moon landings. Actual footage of the missions and interviews with the astronauts and Mission Control technicians make it superb.
If you buy it, don't get anyting but the Criterion Collection DVD version.
