If you loved Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood, try Blue Moon

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Richard Linklater, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Blue Moon is

Some genius decided to host a heart-to-heart at a bar during someone else's victory lap. Hart sulks through 1943 while Rodgers cuts the ribbon on a new era. Linklater’s distraction ends up half a legend behind schedule.
