(No less than TWO of them!) <br />I'm largely with you on how this one rates against more recent-ish space-themed films, though one of my most deeply ingrained memories of it is going to be, unfortunately, the prevailing sourpuss mood of Claire Foy even if we can appreciate why the character would feel that way. I'd only watch it again if somehow her scenes could be snipped out, and then I definitely would. <br />I can see why you thought Ryan G.'s performance was so emotionally reined-in but I can also see how it was valid for what Armstrong was going through when, after he was chosen, it was starting to look as a sort of 'vanity' venture for him, especially the way his wife saw it, and he was getting guilt feelings about the whole business anyway. <br />On the whole your observations are, if I dare say it myself, reasonable ones.Raybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424095016313843883noreply@blogger.com
