Pocket Review: should have picked a focus, guys. It wasn't _bad_, as
such, but it wandered.

I followed it up with _Apollo 13_, which I have seen loads of times.

Now, because I am obsessive, I want to see more films based on
the various space programs. Any that people here would recommend?

[No, I haven't seen the obvious one. I think it conflicted
with SWMBO's shows]

Are there any good films about the Soviet program?


There's 'Out of the Present' - movie about Mir I think, made in space.
Features an actual Soyuz landing! Everyone rolling it upright! Why do
they always end up on their sides?

It's around 1991, at the breakup of the USSR. Quite interesting and i
got the DVD. Cost me 99p!
