ARMSTRONG (Theatrical Release USA 2019)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.5|5.0 Starsìììì 

Armstrong—documentary—tells about Neil Armstrong, his personal life, how he got to be in the space program. and his life accomplishments. There is also a small exploratory on how he decided to say “One Small Step for Man and One Giant Leap for Mankind.” The documentary is put together well and the interviews, especially the ones from his first wife, are very good.
