i be not sure why i put off and or just do not get around and to see the right stuff . i could take my pick and but really i be never make to sit down by my parent or in school or other to watch it and and . screw the excuse and i wasn not sure about a 193 minute movie about astronauts a a kid . but now have see it it quite clear i be miss something fairly excellent in the cannon of the bio pic . it one of those true compel 20th century story and and the filmmaker philip kaufman care about all of these real guy so much that it move right over into the cinematic treatment of the character . and more impressively consider it ensemble there almost a key character to the mix with chuck yeagher and the first man to break the sound barrier who never get into nasa with all the other go for break test pilot and but do taste that rush up to the sky just once and what a rush . this be film making of a superlative caliber . it be such a story that be tell extraordinarily because of how it take itself seriously a a historical document and but never so much so a to get in a great joke the kind of natural joking that people do and such a the few quip do by yeagher in the cockpit to whoever be listen after break the sound barrier and which actually happen or some sliver of satire to the mix . it please both a an emotional experience and one of those rouse and inspire tale and and also at time intellectual . we see the life of these guy and of yeagher and shepard and glenn and cooper and grissom and and their wife too . the right stuff be a very human story and tell with an approximate awe for the subject matter and an attitude that say we can be epic and but we can also point out the flaw that come around in human nature . there be so many obstacle that could have come and and sometimes do and for the folk at nasa and the scientist as well a the handful that be pick to do mission up into space in direct competition with america foe the russian and that all the astronaut could sometimes do would be to joke or give a hard lined measure . we see some expected thing like a big press conference and but we also see thing that ring so true that they feel so real a minor event and like when the scientist be show the astronaut the pod without a window or proper escape hatch and they all band together to put pressure on them to do it right or else the press will hear all hell ( the wording in this scene be very good ) . the veneer of pure heroism be show for what it be and a something of not always a tricky thing while the film be criticize by some of the original astronaut for the depiction of gu grissom ( if only because grissom have pass on in tragedy and couldn not do it himself ) and but his story of go into space and and the aftermath with his wife and be important to show for the story the film try to tell . that one of the remarkable thing in the right stuff and which be give as much equal time and depth a possible to these guy and and their wife at other time . we see dennis quaid cocky pilot say he the best their be and and then another where he suddenly become like 12 year old in front of the female doctor a she speak or laugh with his wife behind door . we see ed harris john glenn a the supposed spokesperson of the group and the dudley do right a it be and but then the slight bit of uncertainty not to mention a really well told drama with his wife and who be a stutterer and and stand up against be pressure by vice president johnson . little detail all add up in the film and and even the one that do not entirely work ( i. e. the cut aways to the aborigine during glenn flight up in space ) still carry some worth as far a be film wonderfully or with a strange quality that make it fun to watch any other director might take out the crucial detail of alan shepard urinating in his suit before the very first successful launch of a u man into space and but it leave in and and strong for it . and as far a just detail with the character go and all you need to see be the kind of simple but very strong representation of death in the man in the black suit and hat who have to pay call to those who have lose their husband or father up in the sky . and and thankfully for such a long running time and be give several moment in term of the power of cinematic technique and of show u the subjective perspective of what those who orbit the earth see and the view outside the window at so many countless mile up in the atmosphere . basically any scene with chuck yeagher be one of these and especially early on but then also towards the end with his absolutely stun bittersweet moment of go up to the sky and and well and nearly die in a last minute jump from the plane into flame . kaufman take the audience into these moment and and even just quiet or interesting one with the actor and and imbue it all with just enough importance to level off the occasional goofiness he allow his character or in the choice of edits ( watch a the chimp and be spin around in that big circular thing be cut with glenn spin around ) . that it also one of those outstanding ensemble help a great deal too . it excite and refreshingly bittersweet hollywood cinema and and at the least of the must see picture of 1983 .
