The Right Stuff
“The Right Stuff” by Phillip Kaufman, is about the beginnings of the space program in America and how it affected the lives of the Mercury astronauts, especially John Glen and Alan Shepard. The analysis and criticism added another layer of understanding by breaking down how the actors got into character, political events happening at the time, and how they made spaceships look realistic and come to life. At the time, Philip had to find a way to make the spaceship look realistic as possible. In Tim Pelan’s “Philip Kaufman’s ‘The Right Stuff’: “A Search Film, a Quest for a Certain Quality that May Have Seen Its Best Days,” he mentions how “astounding” the spaceship scenes were. “Inspired by ILM, motion control cameras were initially to be used to capture flight. He wanted the camera work to reflect the “jerry-rigged” sense of technology evolving to achieve NASA’s goals. “It would feel like you were at 20,000 feet with the Earth moving below.” A vibrator was attached to a camera lens, or a drill to a camera mount, to shake it up, and give footage that authentic, juddery feeling, buffeted by gravitational forces.” I agree with the writers of the articles. The movie was based on a true story that made history. Most of the articles appreciated the “space era” of history.

Agree – The Right Stuff
COLLAPSE
How the analysis and criticism adds another layer of understanding to Philip Kaufman’s The Right Stuff is that it helps take a deeper look into the real life characters in the film and the real life stories of Project Mercury in a humanizing way. As the film is about the heroism of Chuck Yeager being the first to break the sound barrier and the seven astronauts involved with Project Mercury, the film uses a little bit of comedy to point out the absurdity of the US military-industrial complex and blind jingoism. Kaufman’s The Right Stuff doesn’t do the unironic, flag-waving patriotism it focuses on what each character goes through being part of this space program and the challenges they face as astronauts.
I do agree with some of the required readings about how the film is not about the flag-waving patriotism. The Right Stuff was made in 1983, within the first term of the Reagan Administration, and mainstream audiences weren’t ready for a film to point out the absurdity of the US military-industrial complex and blind jingoism with the use of comedy.
