Operation Avalanche Page #2

Synopsis: 1967: the height of the Cold War. The CIA suspects there is a Russian mole inside of NASA, sabotaging the Apollo program. They send two young agents on a mission to go undercover, posing as documentary filmmakers to capture NASA's race to the moon. The real mission - use their access and technology to hunt down the leak. But what they discover is far more shocking than soviet spies - Their government may be hiding a secret about Apollo that could define the decade, and the White House will stop at nothing to silence anyone who learns it.

just right here.

Okay, here you go.

Wow!

You guys don't need

anything else?

No, uh, we'll come

find you if we do.

We'll just get set up.

Thanks, Sharon.

Bye!

She bought it.

We're a documentary

film crew.

You see how they look at us?

See how they look

in the cameras?

Yeah.

This is

the best mission I've

ever been on in my life.

This is, uh...

This is Matt.

Mike.

Nice to meet you.

And, uh, this is Jared.

They're filming a documentary

about the, uh...

The Apollo mission.

Oh, okay!

So, we basically are asking

about what you do, and...

Sure!

And... and I'm ready.

Yeah. Okay.

Well, I work here

in the public affairs office,

and one of my duties is

the media products,

specifically still photos.

...and I stood up

in the theater in sugar land

and I said,

"don't eat those meatballs!

He did not wash his hands."

I had to...

I appreciate your time.

Before we launch to the moon,

come back and see us, okay?

I will.

Okay.

Thanks, guys.

That's a wrap.

We got it.

All right, and mark it.

- Milt interview.

- Take one.

Thanks, Owen.

So, I guess

you can start just by

telling us your name.

Milt heflin.

And what is it you do

here at NASA?

Huh. Uh...

Okay.

Shut the door.

Guys, can we get a shot

of just the lounge being

busy?

I know you're all working,

but if you want to just...

Busy, like there's

some activity.

Or, do whatever

feels natural.

And action.

No, don't look at the cameras.

Just keep sitting.

Just keep standing there.

Part of sato's controversial

south-east Asia...

...the north vietnamese

...decides to accept

us offers...

...spread over 600 feet

to become a gigantic

pool of flames

...a fire extinguisher called

purple k, three tragic fires

aboard aircraft...

One second, Mr. webb.

We're good?

Mr. webb, tell me,

what does it mean

when people say the Russians

are ahead of us

in the space race?

Well, I think it means

that the job of

landing something on the moon

where there's no atmosphere,

and using a rocket

to slow it up,

and having the equipment

still work

is a very difficult job.

Uh, I think it means

the Russians are trying,

just like we are...

Where's this guy's office?

...but I think the real

meaning is...

Two more pieces.

- Come on, Jared.

- Got it, got it!

Okay, hold on.

I'm fine, I need light.

Ready?

Test, test, test, test...

...then you get to talk about

how to go forward. To do it.

Uh, I am not

much interested,

and I don't think it's very

realistic to talk about

technological interchange,

and this kind of thing.

You first gotta get

on the basis

where... where...

Okay, so...

His phone rings,

in his office,

and this phone rings

at the same time.
