is still mind-boggling to me. I don't know if that stupid "no flag-planting" controversy hurt it badly, or if it was just that the movie faithfully depicted Neil Armstrong as an unassuming, humble guy, but that was possibly my favorite Oscar-type movie of the year. It's one of the few movies about the Space Age to really hit on how dangerous spaceflight was.
