Reviews
Man in Space
A terrific film resulting from the collaboration between Disney and Wernher von Braun, the German rocket scientist most responsible for
America's moon landings. This film was instrumental in raising the conscious of the American public to create and support the U.S. Space program in the 50s and 60s.
