The personal story of the man fate picked to live the great adventure of the century.
One year before man set foot on the lunar surface, a decade before Tom WoIfe's The Right Stuff was published, movie trailblazer Robert AItman (M*A*S*H, McCabe & Mrs. Miller) directed this tension-packed adventure about the first manned moon mission and its effect on astronauts (James Caan, Robert DuvalI, Michael Murphy) and their famiIies. Racing to beat the Russians, NASA officials step up the mission's timetable. And not aIl the weeks of intensive training can prepare astronaut Lee Steiger (Caan) for the physical and emotional toIl - or the startling discovery that awaits him on the moon itseIf! Like The PIayer, NashviIle and other AItman greats, Countdown has a "you-are-there" realism that makes the characters all the more involving and the story alI the more suspenseful. Blast off! |
