Apollo 13 Moments of Interest / Re: Apollo 13 Film vs Reality

Didn't know you had a forum, Ben! Glad to find it. Was great to be part of the A11 beta test for the last site. (It's "KS" from the Hipsters on FB.)

Here's one of my favorite bits of cinematic realism. Actors Brett Cullen and Ben Marley. Cullen was a composite of CAPCOMs but was mostly Jack Lousma, who was on station at the time of the accident. Marley was a dead-ringer for the real John Young, which he played.


The left photo is of the actors. Compare to the actual mission photo of the real astronauts.
