Ryan Gosling’s ‘First Man’ Is a Great Double Feature With ‘Project Hail Mary’

The film First Man stars Ryan Gosling as Neil Armstrong, and tells the story of the years leading up to and including the Apollo 11 mission. It explores the personal sacrifices Armstrong and those around him made during this challenging time. Directed by Damien Chazelle, who previously worked with Gosling on La La Land, First Man came after Chazelle won an Academy Award for Best Director. While it didn’t achieve major Oscar success, many consider it one of the best films of its year – a powerful and emotional story about the incredible things science can achieve, even with its uncertainties. This makes First Man a fantastic pairing with the novel Project Hail Mary.
