October Sky
Man, what the hell was I thinking letting this sit on my shelf for ten months? (…and yes, I think that’s a record for being a lazy-ass with my Netflix rentals.) Sure, it’s a feel-good tear-jerker, but man is it a good one. And it’s got rockets! That blow up! And it’s funny! C’mon! NASA!…
