I really enjoyed this! Watching how things worked behind the scenes was interesting and humorous. Flying cork for debris! The actors wearing shorts under their costumes! Seeing YSS setting his sleeve afire! "Monkey-man's" outrageous ad-libs. Very good! ;D
My favorite, though, was listening to how the actor who played our beloved Admiral changed his voice with each decade of the character's life. At 20, YSS's voice was higher and softer, more like the actual voice of the actor and by the time YSS was 50, it was a deep, resonant, commanding voice. What wonderful talent!
And it was heartbreaking to hear that an actor's son had died of leukemiaduring the filming.
Very good all around and a nice ending for the program. It helped me to remember that these are flesh and blood people and that, indeed, I am NOTin a time warp looking at the real YSS. ;D
