Why would I watch a movie about Apollo 13? I already know how it turned out.
I’m surprised no one mentioned, ‘JFK: The Final Hours,’ which Paxton narrated.
He was at the parade in Dallas (there is a picture of him in the crowd) and talks about his experiences as well as the general events of the day of the assassination.
I was a "space nerd" (I was born the day of John Glen's Mercury launch) when I was growing up, and I remember my family being glued to the TV set when news of the explosion came out.
I don't think that most people are aware of the miracles that allowed the crew to make it home. It was really an eye opener, and even knowing how the mission ended in real life didn't reduce the level of tension in the movie. And it was amazing to get a glimpse into the lives and actions of the people who helped them get home.
