There is something inherently tough about Americans. They will not accept defeat. The astronauts of Apollo 13 (1995) would not give up, John Nash in A Beautiful Mind (2001) would not give up, and Jim Braddock would not surrender to poverty.
Ron Howard
[On preparing for his role in Apollo 13 (1995)] Ron [Howard] called me up and said, "we`re going up on this zero-G airplane and we, uh - for research. You don`t have to go. You don`t have to go. Absolutely no pressure. If you don`t want to go, you don`t h...
Kevin Bacon
I worked for four days on JFK but it changed everything. It led to A Few Good Men, The River Wild, Murder In The First and Apollo 13. It was definitely a turning point.
Kevin Bacon
A lot of these changes we do on stage. So the Apollo audience, whether it`s to their taste or not, will have to tolerate the sight of Josh and myself taking our clothes on and off.
Patrick Stewart
My first hip-hop performance was at Carnegie Hall with Wyclef, ... I got a little feature and he announced me as the `hip-hop violinist.` The next night I played at the Apollo.
Miri Ben-Ari
Kennedy had made a mess in Cuba at the Bay of Pigs. He had to do something to look good. The Apollo program of going to the Moon was quite a goal,.
Wally Schirra
I think I was very interested in the space program as a kid, watching the first Apollo missions to the moon, and it`s something I thought that would be a lot of, of fun and exciting and a very worthwhile job.
Mark Kelly
I like acting for now. But after seeing Apollo 13, what I really want to do is to be an astronaut. I`m dying to go to a space camp next summer!
Natalie Portman
Given that the movie had to condense four days into two hours, and given that the communications were sometimes rather tedious and technical, it was pretty accurate, ... Apollo 13.
Fred Haise
Apollo was just too big, like flying a big transport airplane, which fighter pilots don`t really revere. Gemini was just about the right size.
Wally Schirra
Apollo was a big, unwieldy vehicle. I had a problem with the flight controllers over that. It would try to fare its way like an airplane.
