Description: from
"Yahoo® Movies"
This epic chronicle of the seven pilots chosen to become astronauts
for Project Mercury is based on the novel by Tom Wolfe.
Deep in the desert during the 1950s, army test pilots courageously
fought to break the sound barrier. These maverick men would stop at
nothing to achieve winning speed. Led by their champion, Chuck Yeager
(Sam Shepard), they caroused at the local watering hole while sharing
tales of extreme sport and bravery--until the Russians successfully
sent their Sputnik satellite into the skies, and the United States
government panicked, quickly launching a space program of its own.
In an effort to find the right men for the job, the government searched
the desert and the seas, compiling a crew of daredevil space cowboys
willing to do anything for the chance to represent America in the
space race. After grueling medical, physical, and psychological tests,
seven men were left standing, led by American hero John Glenn (Ed
Harris), test pilots Gordon Cooper (Dennis Quaid), Gus Grissom (Fred
Ward), and Scott Carpenter (Charles Frank), and Navy man Alan Shepard
(Scott Glenn). With the help of the media and the government, these
men became overnight heroes, sacrificing their freedom and their families
for the dream of space travel.
This piercing exploration of the men and wives behind the mission
serves as a testament to the determination of America to dominate
the field of space exploration, while offering an intriguing portrait
of a period in which America wanted to believe in perfect men and
their perfect wives, even if the reality was vastly more complex.
Philip Kaufman's gripping film also features fabulous special effects
and stunning aerial cinematography. |
