Moon

Hi All
I've just seen 'Moon' I thought it was great for a low budget movie. They used minitures very similar to UFO and they look great. The moon vehicles were a little like UFO Mobiles but on the moon. As anyone else seen this movie, directed by Duncan Jones (David Bowie's Son).

No! but I got it for my daughter for Christmas - so I'll get to see it soon!

I agree. Very nice movie, showing that one can come up with a clever
SF product without relying on too many special effects. Very touching plot.

An article on Bill Pearson who was the miniature effects supervisor on Moon. Not surprisingly, there is a Gerry Anderson connection as Brian Johnson gave him his break in the business.
