Neil Armstrong moon film 'un-American' - Buzz Aldrin

From Morning Report, 8:50 am on 4 September 2018

A new movie about the first person to step foot on the moon, Neil Armstrong, is being denounced as "un-American". The complaint comes from Armstrong's partner Buzz Aldrin, who is furious "First Man" doesn't show the iconic moment when he and Armstrong planted the US flag on the moon's surface. Chuck Yeager, the first pilot to break the sound barrier and an old friend of Neil Armstrong, is also not happy with the movie. Guyon Espiner talks to Hollywood correspondent Brad Pomerance.
