Il principale satellite russo per la comunicazione è in avaria. Rischia di precipitare sulla Terra nel giro di poco tempo. I suoi impianti ricalcano quelli dello Skylab americano, una tecnologia ormai obsoleta che nessuno sa più come riparare. Nessuno tranne i 4 vecchi componenti del gruppo Dedalus che era stato sciolto alla fine degli anni Cinquanta. Gli anzianauti si riuniscono e mostrano in fase di allenamento quello che sanno fare. La strategia del responsabile NASA, loro antico nemico, è quella di far esercitare insieme a loro dei giovani astronauti in modo da farli restare a terra all'ultimo momento. Non va così e i nostri partono. Ma una sorpresa non piacevole li attende... Clint Eastwood continua il suo percorso di rivisitazione dei miti del cinema americano. La sua però non è l'opera di un iconoclasta. Clint ama ciò che fa e ama il western. Quando ci mostra i quattro vecchietti che si preparano ad andare nello spazio lo fa con grande ironia ma anche con grande affetto. La frontiera, il nemico da sconfiggere, stanno lassù? Ecco allora i Nostri pronti a partire, con quel mix di individualismo e di spirito di squadra che costituisce la formula vincente. Il finale celebra un sacrificio ma non cerca l'applauso. copyright© 2000- 2021 MYmovies.it® - Mo-Net S.r.l. - [email protected].

NASA Reflects America’s Changing Opportunities; Social, NASA Impacts US Culture Education: Inspiring Cultural, and Students as Only NASA Can Educational Legacies Social, Cultural, and Educational Legacies 459 NASA Reflects The Space Shuttle, which began flying in 1981 and ushered in an entirely new human spaceflight program, was a watershed for cultural diversity America’s within NASA and had substantial cultural impact outside the realm of Changing spaceflight. In the 1950s and 1960s, opportunities for American women and minorities were limited as they were often segregated into pink Opportunities; collar and menial jobs. NASA’s female and minority employees faced NASA Impacts similar obstacles. The Space Shuttle Program opened up opportunities US Culture for these groups—opportunities that did not exist during Projects Mercury and Gemini or the Apollo and Skylab Programs. NASA’s transformation was a direct consequence of a convergence of events Jennifer Ross-Nazzal Shannon Lucid that happened in the 1960s and 1970s and continued through the Helen Lane following 3 decades. These included: public policy changes instituted on the national level; the development of a spacecraft whose physical capabilities departed radically from the capsule concept; and an increase in the number of women and minorities holding degrees in the fields of science and engineering, making them attractive candidates for the space agency’s workforce. Over the course of the program, the agency’s demographics reflected this transformation: women and minorities were incorporated into the Astronaut Corps and other prominent technical and administrative positions. The impact of NASA’s longest-running program extends beyond these dramatic changes.

Jersey Boys (2014) Dallo Spettacolo Di Broadway Al Cinema, La Parabola Di Frankie Valli E Della Sua Travagliata Ascesa Nello Show Business Vista Da Clint Eastwood
Jersey Boys (2014) Dallo spettacolo di Broadway al cinema, la parabola di Frankie Valli e della sua travagliata ascesa nello show business vista da Clint Eastwood. Un film di Clint Eastwood con Christopher Walken, Francesca Eastwood, Freya Tingley, Ashley Leilani, Vincent Piazza, Kathrine Narducci, James Madio, Sean Whalen, Steve Schirripa, Mike Doyle. Genere Biografico durata 134 minuti. Produzione USA 2014. Uscita nelle sale: mercoledì 18 giugno 2014 Il film è l'adattamento cinematografico del musical di Broadway "Jersey Boys", vincitore nel 2005 dei Tony Awards. Emanuele Sacchi - www.mymovies.it Frankie e Tommy sono amici fraterni, che si arrangiano con qualche lavoretto illegale per il boss Gyp De Carlo. Ma Frankie è dotato di una voce straordinaria, tale da convincere persino il boss sul suo talento unico: nel giro di breve tempo, insieme a Bob e Nick, i due formeranno i Four Seasons, destinati a sbancare nel mondo del pop anni Sessanta. Il rapporto privilegiato tra Clint Eastwood e la musica non è una novità: autore di diverse colonne sonore e di racconti di vita e suono come "Bird" o "Honkytonk Man", innamorato di ogni genere alla base della cultura americana. Come tale, anche del rock anni '50 misto al doo-wop - quello che Frank Zappa chiamava vaseline rock e scimmiottava con la finta band Ruben And The Jets -, che deve aver esercitato sull'ottantaquattrenne regista un fascino tale da convincerlo ad accettare la scommessa (l'ennesima di una carriera inarrestabile) di trasporre su grande schermo il successo di Broadway 'Jersey Boys'. Storia tutta italo-americana di gang, furtarelli e ragazzi che diventano uomini, quella che idealmente sembrerebbe destinata a finire tra le mani di Martin Scorsese, anziché in quelle da cowboy urbano di Eastwood.

Production Notes
During his lifetime, J. Edgar Hoover would rise to be the most powerful man in America. As head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation for nearly 50 years, he would stop at nothing to protect his country. Through eight presidents and three wars, Hoover waged battle against threats both real and perceived, often bending the rules to keep his countrymen safe. His methods were at once ruthless and heroic, with the admiration of the world his most coveted, if ever elusive, prize. Hoover was a man who placed great value on secrets—particularly those of others—and was not afraid to use that information to exert authority over the leading figures in the nation. Understanding that knowledge is power and fear poses opportunity, he used both to gain unprecedented influence and to build a reputation that was both formidable and untouchable. He was as guarded in his private life as he was in his public one, allowing only a small and protective inner circle into his confidence. His closest colleague, Clyde Tolson, was also his constant companion. His secretary, Helen Gandy, who was perhaps most privy to Hoover’s designs, remained loyal to the end…and beyond. Only Hoover’s mother, who served as his inspiration and his conscience, would leave him, her passing truly crushing to the son who forever sought her love and approval. As seen through the eyes of Hoover himself, “J. Edgar” explores the personal and public life and relationships of a man who could distort the truth as easily as he upheld it during a life devoted to his own idea of justice, often swayed by the darker side of power.
