Movie Watching on 4th of July-- Part 6: "Apollo 13" and "The Natural"

These are movies to watch instead of dealing with the crowds and mosquitoes on the 4th of July.

Parts 1 and 2  are in my July 4, Not So Forgotten: War of 1812 blog.  Parts 3 and 4 are in my Tattooed On Your Soul blog of July 4, 2019.  Part 5 is in yesterday's Down Da Road I Go blog.

"APOLLO 13 (1995)

When Tom Hanks, playing Jim Lpvell, says "Houston, we have a problem," you know he's serious.  Thus begins the tale of the the greatest rescue mission in history.  This happened almost 50 years ago.

"THE NATURAL"  (1984)

This is the greatest sports movie of all time as a young man falls victim to temptation and then spends years seeking redemption.  Then Roy Hobbs, played by Robert Redford, hits that famous home run that knocks the lights out in the ballpark.
