Apollo 13 (1995)
Remember this is drama, not a documentary.

For anyone watching this film who has not seen interviews or read non fiction accounts of this incident, do not think this is factual, particularly the portrayal of the astronauts.
It is most certainly not. They were not petulant schoolboys blaming each other for a technical fault that existed long before the flight. They were all professionals who knew what they were doing. The calm determination and skills of all involved got the astronauts home safely. This film dishonours that effort.
Reality beats dramatic interpretation here, no question.
