The conceit of #OperationAvalanche (which I was initially resistant to, thus making it an appealing film to watch) is that NASA can't actually land on the moon in '69, so when this woman showing them around says, "They're here 🎥ing a doc about Apollo 11," he panics, "Ohhhh... okay!"

🤣

He's congenial and all smiles, until he hears they're filming a doc about the upcoming Apollo 11 mission.He visibly panics, lol. "Ohhhh... oh, okay. Okay!" lol

I know this one's right, too! 🤓

"Drive friendly" is not the #Texas way, by the by. #TX drivers are nearly on par with Massachusetts drivers, in terms of the depth of rancor and aggression. Don't drive in Houston if you can avoid it.

Ooh, I fucking LOVE this 🤩

I know for a fact the Mississippi one is era-appropriate, and I have to believe the other two are, as well.

It's blink-and-you'll-miss-it (literally; getting the screenshots was tough), but this sort of detail adds so much to a #film.

"You're going to have to buy us better cameras, though..."

And then the aspect-ratio changes! That's awesome. This is definitely a fun movie, and it's doing interesting things. I'm on board for whatever they're doing here, I think.

"You're going to have to buy us better cameras, though..."And look! Now we're in a wider aspect-ratio, and in color! That's fun. I like what this movie's doing.

The aspect ratio is interesting, & it makes sense for the sort of cameras they'd be using (since this is faux-found-footage).

That's a thoughtful touch, & one I like immediately. The footage also has an authentically-60s feel to it (the grain & so forth). I dig it!

It's that distinctive squiggly shit you see before films sometimes, right when the reel kicks up.A test-pattern.A clap to sync sound.That's Matt Johnson, I believe. I also need to see BlackBerry, which I've heard is good (and has Glen Howerton in it).

Like I said, it's free on #YouTube, so feel free to watch along with me or at your leisure: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlKG...

#NowWatching: Operation Avalanche (2016)

I missed a lot of #movies in 2016 (lot of stuff going on), and I didn't so much as know this existed until I saw it for free on YouTube a minute ago.

I see/hear mostly good things about it, though, so here goes! 🤩
