Kenneth Turan of the LA Times calls 'In the Shadow of the Moon' "an unexpected knockout." In his recommendation he says "Even if you care so little about the moon that you wouldn't mind if it's made of green cheese, the romance of this endeavor will capture you entirely."
Between 1968 and 1972, nine American spacecrafts voyaged to the Moon, and 12 men walked upon its surface. They remain the only human beings to have stood on another world. For the first time, and possibly the last, the film combines archival material from the original NASA film footage, much of it never before seen, with interviews with the surviving astronauts, who emerge as eloquent, witty, emotional and very human.
