Academy award-winning short movie blowing the whistle |

|
Released in 1986 and winning the Oscar the following year for best live action short film, Precious Images is a short film directed and produced by Chuck Workman that features approximately 470 half-second-long splices of all fictional iconic American movie picture. This compilation interestingly features as the odd one out an astronaut descending from the lunar module onto the barren lunar surface. It seems likely that people in Hollywood knew well before anyone else did on the outside that the Apollo missions were fictional. Consider the following James Bond scene in the 1971 film Diamonds Are Forever where Sean Connery is seen infiltrating a forbidden zone and questioned by a German scientist, to whom he says he is checking for radiation levels moments before interrupting a movie set depicting two actors pretending to be astronauts walking on the moon, then escaping in a moon buggy, crashing through backdrops erected to simulate the lunar topography. |
