A friend of mine picked this film up in Cash converters, now the premier place for DVDs it seems. This is a great film telling the story of the rescue mission of the stricken Apollo capsule after an oxygen tank had ruptured part way to the moon.
Really good detail of the space programme apart from that, and the 1960's age where anything was possible in America. Getting into orbit still remains a technical challenge, and this still represents the pinnacle.
Well worth watching.
Ron Howard directed, who I also saw as a fresh faced actor in John Waynes "The Shootist" a few days ago.
