THE RIGHT STUFF is an excellent film. One of those few films I can sit and watch the rest of no matter how far into it it is, no matter what channel it's on. Am pissed that Bill Conti's marvelous & inspiring score is only partially available on CD. Which reminds me, I need to sit down and watch the kick-ass new DVD that came out and has been sitting on the shelf.
ReplyDeleteShattered Glass, we just watched that recently. It was good, since Haydern wasn't as petulant as he is as Anakin.
And It Makes No Difference by The Band is just heartbreaking. Wonderful song.
