Plot Summary

It is a date that will be remembered for all time. July 20th, 1969 - the day man first set foot upon the moon. That one shining moment was witnessed by a television audience of six hundred million people across the globe. Remarkably, those immortal images came via a “dish” in outback Australia. It may have been one small step for man, but for a handful of Aussie scientists, it was a giant leap. And one that almost didn’t happen...

Review

On New Year’s Eve of 2017, I visited the landmark Parkes Radio Telescope. It was one of the few stations that received the live, transmitted images of the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969. On my recent trip I had purchased the movie THE DISH from the visitors centre, intending to review it for this year’s Australia Day. THE DISH was presented as a historically dramatic comedy with a conventional approach of humour similar to the company’s previous film THE CASTLE (click here). While the movie maintains some historical accuracy about the telescope, it contains some noticeable differences that are somewhat necessary to keep the plot front and straight. Also, the humour is broad and simple as nothing else can upset the film of its noteworthy balance.

While each actor had a substantial part in the film, none had been so notable than Sam Neill and Patrick Warburton. The latter portrays a scientific advisor of NASA and is the only American performer to have been prominently featured in this Australian-esque picture. Though Warburton hasn’t drifted into much dramatic territory and this picture was an exception of his career as being both a serious and comical actor. Sam Neill was a seasoned veteran actor who has been seen in big-budgeted movies like DEAD CALM and JURASSIC PARK (click here) now shines as a recently widowed chief supervisor. 

THE DISH is a grand Aussie film with its gentle comedy and local scenery that goes to extraordinary lengths to capture the spirit of Parkes (where it was shot in some scenes) as well as the secrets behind the lunar landing. I recommend this movie for all the audiences who are interested in the history of space exploration, who have lived in the same town or visited it and have been to see the telescope.

Star rating: (8/10) Very Good Movie
