Film Lesson: "The Right Stuff"

The United States and the U.S.S.R were competing in the movie "The Right Stuff" to get Mach 1, which was the faster then the speed of sound. The first person to do that was an American pilot, the competition had only begun. The next competition the U.S and the U.S.S.R had was the first person into space and the U.S.S.R came out on top, the U.S. was always playing catch up to keep up.

The scenes that will help me remember the Cold war are the pilots and all of the rockets trying to fly up but failing. Another scene that will help me remember the Cold War is when the United States pilot broke the Mach 1. The last very important scene that i will remember is when the Russians sent the first man into space and the United States pilot said at least well be the first free man in space.
