FIRST MAN (FILM)


Directed By: Damien Chazelle

Stars: Ryan Goslin, Claire Foy

USA

2018

Seen On Foxtel


A look at the life of the astronaut, Neil Armstrong, and the legendary space mission that led him to become the first man to walk on the Moon on July 20, 1969.

 Absorbing account of astronaut, Neil Armstrong's experience of becoming the first man on the moon.  The fine screenplay makes Armstrong's quiet, reticent personality a plus in this long movie. Good work by Ryan Gosling as Armstrong and Claire Foy as his wife.  The special effects are terrific.  Recommended.
