Astronaut Farmer - Good all around
Good family movie. However, if you are strongly into space travel, you may leave a little disappointed. The overriding theme in this film is not the space adventure but the adventure of getting through all the governmental hassle and funding of such an endeavor as a private individual.
Best two lines:
-Bruce Dern tells Billy Bob Thorton that he couldn't even get his family to eat together, but he's got his (Charles Farmer, played by Billy Bob) dreaming together.
-Charles pulls his son, Shepherd, out of school, telling the teacher that rather than him learning to read about history, he'd rather he make history.
If you like movies about family togetherness and dreams fulfilled against all odds, definitely see this film!
