Damien Chazelle – First Man
Why I’ve Picked this choice – First Man was one film I wanted to see this year being a huge fan of the space-race, this story follows the life of Neil Armstrong from the tragic part of his life, right up to the historical moment in life. This is a different film to what people were expecting because it does focus on his personal life over the full space race to the moon. When we hit the space scenes we get breath taking scenes, while the human interactions feel real and genuine.
I really loved this movie, and didn’t mind that it focused more on Neil’s life than the space race. Those final scenes had me on the edge of my seat!
I think that is what makes this one stand out, we have enough films that focus on the space race, the men had lives we can focus on too.
