[quote:Lastcall 1241218:MV81MTEzNDRfMjIyNDg5MjlfNUNCRTRBMjk=] Neil Armstrong has spent the last 50 years avoiding anything commercial That includes movie deals A few years ago when he discovered that his barber had sold a lock of his hair for $3,000 , Armstrong spent thousands of dollars suing the barber and forced him to donate the $3,000 to a charity. Armstrong has been a spokesman for several companies , his self-imposed rules are 1. It must be an American company 2. It must be a good long term investment for ordinary people ( In other words ...not Enron ) The guy just has standards that prevent him from "Cashing In" on his fame. [/quote]

WHY MAKE THE DOCO ANYWAY ?
TO COUNTER THE WEBSITES THAT QUESTION THE MOON LANDINGS PERHAPS ?
I SMELL A RAT.
In the Shadow of the Moon is a 2006 British documentary film about the United States' manned missions to the moon. It premiered at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival
The one (large) omission of the film is the first man to set foot on the Moon, Neil Armstrong, who is still alive but refused to participate.
