APOLLO 13 (1995)

Based on the true story of the ill-fated 13th Apollo mission bound for the moon. Astronauts Lovell, Haise and Swigert were scheduled to fly Apollo 14, but are moved up to 13. It's 1970, and America have already achieved their lunar landing goal, so there's little interest in this "routine" flight - until things go very, very wrong, and prospects of a safe return to earth fades with each precious minute. Director: Ron Howard. Cast: Tom Hanks, Kevin Bacon, Bill Paxton, Gary Sinise and Ed Harris.
