In the Shadow of the Moon.

"It's fitting that the World Cinema documentary award at the last Sundance film festival went to In the Shadow of the Moon, which reminds us of a seemingly distant time when the United States was not so alienated from the rest of the world," remarks Ed Gonzalez at Slant.

"A stirring account of the Apollo program's mission to the moon, as remembered by some of the few men ever to view the Earth from the other end of a telescope, David Sington's doc recaptures the thrill, the terror, and the heroism of man hurling himself into the void," writes Jim Ridley in the Voice. "Need a pick-me-up after the bitter foreign-policy failures reported in Charles Ferguson's No End in Sight? Here's every nation on earth - even the pouting Soviets - fixed on the comet of can-do US optimism streaking into the stars. Even the French loved us then". Posted by: dwhudson    Source
