Apollo 11 (2019)
Movie
Released
Built entirely from archive footage, much of it newly found large-format 65mm film, with no narrator and no interviews. The picture is so sharp that the 1969 mission plays like an event unfolding rather than a history lesson, and the crowds watching the launch are half the fun.
Rated G in the US, with nothing iffy beyond a few cigarettes. The landing comes late and the build-up can feel slow to younger kids, so tell them it is worth the wait.
