The movie "The Box"

[Greg D. Moore \(Strider\)[_1054_]]

Ok, I would NOT suggest this movie. Quite honestly, I think it sucked.

So why bring it up here?

Two reasons:

1) There are shots of Langley and some include some prominent shots of the
lunar lander trainer there.
2) At least two of the actors in "The Box" portraying characters who work
for NASA also play characters in From the Earth to the Moon (there they play
Harrison Storms and George Low).

Unfortunately, even the presence of Cameron Diaz does not do enough to make
the movie that enjoyable.

(The timeframe of the movie is Christmas, 1976, and one of the main
characters supposedly worked on the main camera for the Viking landers. )

Anyone else see the movie? Anyone else enjoy the shots at Langley?

Langley? CIA building? LaRC?

That's like me asking anyone about seeing something at GSFC. Face it,
unless its's JSC, MSFC or KSC, then it isn't really exciting. Heck, I
went to JPL once and the guy that was suppose to meet me and show me
aroiund was on vacation! Not much to do around 4800 Oak Grove Dr. I
Pasedena, CA from the outside.

All that said, I'll check out the movie to see Cameron Diaz if nothing
else.

As I said, it had some great shots of the landing trainer there. That's an
impressive and cool structure if nothing else.
