Christopher Key here, vaccine-police.com.
I've had an amazing weekend.
I was able to go out in the woods and spent some amazing time in a log cabin and really got to get grounded.
I believe one of the most important things you can do for this temple that God created is to go get out in what God created.
Go out in the woods.
Go out on the beach.
Go out and take your shoes off and get grounded.
Go out and walk in the sand.
It's amazing to be in the microbiome.
What God has created is unbelievable.
And what an amazing, amazing time to be alive.
Had a wonderful weekend.
And this weekend, Friday night, I went to sleep in this amazing cabin.
Stay down about two o'clock and two o'clock I woke up.
I couldn't sleep.
So I decided to go get in this hot tub that was at the log cabin.
In this hot tub, I put all my Epsom salts, my Himalayan salt, and a bunch of other minerals in there because again any anything that touches your skin is absorbed into your skin that's why a good rule of thumb is if you're not willing to eat it if you're not willing to eat it do not put it on the skin don't put it in your hair don't put it on you because your skin is your largest organ okay so couldn't sleep decided two o'clock in the morning to go get in the hot tub and I did
and guys I get on my phone And I haven't been on Instagram in a minute.
And I start scrolling through Instagram.
And I come across this documentary called Shooting Stanley Kubrick.
And I stopped.
Hit play and started to watch this documentary.
And guys...
One of the most important keys, I believe, to taking care of this temple is to take care of what is put up here.
To do what the Lord commands each and every one of you to do, which is test and prove all things.
Not some things, but all things.
And when you do that, He will show you the truth.
And the truth shall make you free.
And I believe, it's my personal opinion, That our government has lied to us about many, many different things.
I believe they lied to us about what happened on 9-11.
Yes, I do.
I believe they lied to us about what happened at Ruby Ridge, at Waco, at Oklahoma City, Gulf of Tonkin.
I can name many other ones.
But the one that has always bothered me Is the moon landing.
My uncle worked for NASA in Huntsville, Alabama.
He was a chemist.
And we've had some interesting conversations.
And I've done a lot of research on the moon landing.
And last night, I mean, Friday night for some reason, I'm scrolling through in this documentary, Shooting Stanley Kubrick.
Stanley Kubrick, I think that's how you say his name, was the film director that did The Shining, that did Wise-Eyed Shut, and did some other, did Space Odyssey 2001.
And I proceeded to watch this documentary, Shooting Stanley Kubrick.
It was very interesting to me that this man named Patrick Murray had an interview with Stanley Kubrick.
It's said in this documentary.
And Patrick Murray put together a 48-minute documentary that I found to be very intriguing.
And we're going to show it to you guys here in a second.
But after watching it, I instant messaged Patrick Murray through Instagram, and he messaged me back.
And I said, look, I know it's four o'clock in the morning at this time.
Can we talk tomorrow morning?
He said, sure.
So Patrick Murray called me up Saturday morning, and we had a very interesting conversation.
And I said, look, brother, Your film really caught my interest.
I would love to do an interview with you.
He said, I would love to, but I'm about to release never, ever seen footage of the rest of the interview with Stanley Kubrick.
And he says, Christopher, I have it ready for you by Saturday, a week from yesterday.
I said, okay.
He says, look, I want you to watch this two-hour documentary and then I want you to sit down with me and let's go over all of it.
I said, deal, brother.
Let's do it.
So, next Saturday, I'm going to watch this two-hour, never-before-seen footage of Patrick Murray and Stanley Kubrick interview.
And then we're going to bring Patrick Murray on for you guys to ask him questions.
Ask the hard questions.
So I need to know what questions do you have for Patrick Murray?
So guys, with no further ado, I want you guys to watch this 48-minute documentary called Shooting Stanley Kubrick that was released 15 years ago.
15 years ago!
And all of a sudden I reach out to Patrick Murray and he is going to release the rest of the footage with us in two weeks.
I'm going to get to see it next Saturday and then we're going to bring him on the following Wednesday to interview and then we're going to show this new two-hour footage on Friday.
So what questions do you have for Patrick Murray?
That's what I want to know.
So sit back, watch this film of shooting Stanley Kubrick.
And I want to know, do you guys really think that we went to the moon when Tesla can't get there now?
But we made it there with freaking the technology we had.
It's ridiculous.
It's sad.
So sit back, watch this, and send me your questions, guys.
And if you haven't received your painting energy chips, guys, please.
I've had all kind of issues with USPS. I need your name, address, and email to 205-936-9803, and I'll get those taken care of ASAP for you, okay?
I will send them out as many times as we need to, even until you get them.
And if you haven't got...
Your glutathione, which I believe is the most important thing to detox the body.

That's GetIGF1.com.

Love you guys.
God bless.
And enjoy shooting Stanley Kubrick.
Could this all have been a lie?
I think so.
Love you.
God bless.
So here's the incredibly simple story about how I got to get a chance to shoot Stanley Kubrick.
Basically, he's been my idol as a filmmaker since I was a little kid, and I started off just writing letters, and I figured that would work, but that wasn't me.
But then I figured about the six degrees of separation idea.
Maybe I should employ that concept.
So what I did was I reached out to my dad, and he's a businessman, and We're pretty connected, so we knew some people.
So we went from him and we called the governor of Connecticut, a good guy, really connected as well, who actually knew Walter Payton, who actually got my business with him in St.
Louis, but that's another story.
But he was connected to a guy at Warner Brothers, named Steve Ross, who ran it before he died, who then, of course, ate at Doug Louie's restaurant in downtown New York, where my dad was a partner.
When he was about with the NFL, he met Trump, who he made friends with.
And Trump, of course, knew my Uncle Jim, who started around the McDonald House with Jim at the Eagles and had the NFL connection with it.
He actually knew some people in the entertainment industry who knew that guy, I don't even know his name, from 2001, who actually knew a friend of Trump's who got called again and put into the loop.
He actually...
This time, he knew someone at Disney, so he arranged a lunch with, I think it was Ivanka, and she actually got the call set up with Kubrick.
It was actually sort of like 11 degrees of separation.
Hello?
Yeah, I got the speakerphone with the assistant.
Listen, I can't hear too well.
Do you suppose you could turn the music down just a little?
Oh, that's much better.
Yes.
Fine, I can hear you now.
Then end Stanley for about 38 seconds.
I'm coming through fine too, eh?
Good, then...
Well, then, as you say, we're both coming through fine.
Good.
Well, it's good that you're fine, then, and I'm fine.
I agree with you.
It's great to be fine.
You know how...
We've always talked about the possibility of letting me come to England and to let me...
Well, let me finish.
For him to allow me to...
Let me finish.
Why do you think I'm calling you?
Just to say hello?
Of course I like to speak to you.
Of course I like to say hello.
Not now, but anytime.
It's a friendly call.
Of course it's a friendly call.
Listen, if it wasn't friendly, You probably wouldn't have even got it.
So once we got past kind of the awkward part of every kind of first conversation you have with somebody, he let me pitch him regarding this idea of doing an interview.
Just getting one hour to do an interview.
And he surprisingly said yes, but with one condition.
And I just got on a plane and went to London right away.
You know, during the flight to London, by the way, it was, I just could not sit still.
I was just so excited.
I was planning all the questions, writing them down.
What was I going to do with this one hour I had, with this legend, with this person that's been called the greatest filmmaker ever?
I mean, it was just, I couldn't believe it was happening.
I even got a chance, you know, to talk to the pilots.
This was before 9-11.
To where?
Kubrick.
Kubrick.
I told them where I was going and they were kind of excited.
They were Kubrick fans as well.
But what was interesting about this was I found out when I got there, and this is kind of a long story, is that one of the conditions, there's really only one condition to doing this, and that was that I had to sign this really complicated non-disclosure agreement.
For 15 years, not only could I not show the footage of whatever I filmed that day, but I couldn't even tell anybody I had done this.
I couldn't tell an agent, a lawyer, an investor.
I couldn't tell my wife-to-be.
I couldn't tell my parents.
I couldn't tell anybody.
And that was sort of frustrating personally, artistically, financially, and otherwise.
And so therefore, it wasn't until basically 2014 that I was able to even disclose to the people that I had even gotten this interview and do the raise to finish this film.
Which you are about to watch right here.
So, you know, I hereby present the fruits of a 17-year labor, which I call shooting Stanley Kubrick.
He is considered by many the greatest film director the medium has ever known.
Frankly, I think that's an understatement.
I mean, I think the guy is pretty much a god amongst men.
And I think you may be as surprised as me as to what he talked about.
I felt like a man that was on a mission.
A mission that was unique in my entire life.
This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it.
So I ran into this really sweet ride and I drove to the left hand side of the road, which was really a weird experience and I got to Kubrick's.
Okay, I hate to interrupt and break the fourth wall, but I thought I had the I hate to interrupt and break the fourth wall, but I thought I mean, there wasn't exactly a mailbox that said Kubrick.
But then I was like, sweet, they're sitting in a car.
It was like a Rolls Royce.
It was sweet.
And I thought Stanley was going to pop out, but...
We've got to get him out of here.
I'm gonna see how they makeover that was insanely.
Just for the record, I have to tell you that I almost shit my pants when I saw this guy.
He pretty much was the scariest guy I've seen in my life.
Having absolutely no idea what's going on, I took the envelope hoping that would make the guy go away.
Fortunately, it actually worked.
But I had no idea what was going on.
If it wasn't already weird enough, then pianos came out of nowhere.
I don't know where the hell that was.
In the woods somewhere.
And I read the letter.
So apparently I had flown across the Atlantic for no reason and Trump was a big liar.
Okay, that was a total joke.
If you haven't seen Eyes Wide Shut, that was a scene from it.
Just playing around, trying to do my own creative thing.
I probably failed.
Anyway, he wanted me to sign some papers, no big deal.
We were scheduled to meet the next day.
Everything was cool.
Just chill in London, take in the sights, you know, maybe meet a few people, make some friends.
Then they called.
Sorry, you faded away there.
Then cancelled.
What?
The meeting.
Well listen, how do you think I feel about it?
It would just be a couple days.
Yes.
She was editing Eyes Wide Shut.
Right.
It'll only just be a few days.
What?
I see.
Well...
Uh-huh.
A few days turned into a few weeks.
Well, a few weeks turned into actually a few months.
Can you imagine how I feel about it?
And basically after waiting by the phone for approximately six months, I finally got a call.
Hello?
On March the 3rd, 1999.
Is there something bad here?
Yes.
I was told he was profusely apologetic.
I am as sorry as you are.
So sorry, so busy editing ice white shit.
Don't say that you're more sorry than I am, because I'm capable of being just as sorry as you are.
So we're both sorry, alright?
Alright.
They gave me precise directions to his massive estate.
Where is that?
I almost crashed my car three times on the way.
Oh, you'll call him first, will you?
It did come to finally shoot Stanley Kubrick.
Robert, now let's see your position.
What are you drinking?
What'll it be?
I'm awfully glad you asked.
I can't remember.
So here's what.
Some desperate begging.
You slip me a bottle of bourbon.
Okay.
A little glass.
Okay.
And some ice.
Okay.
You're not too busy, are you?
You can do that.
I'm going to get a PA. That's swell.
I'm going to freshen that up.
I always liked you.
I know my attorney and your attorney has gone.
Is there anything else?
It's just...
We'll make you another one.
Freshen that up.
No, no, no.
If you have a T-brake at 4...
You don't need the break for this T-brake.
If there's anything else, just to notify my lawyers...
I'll take care of it.
This must be just, you know, a complimentary T-brake.
If you notify my lawyers...
I'll take care of it.
Fucked around for an hour.
Because you got strong at the end.
Is everything look in order?
Book for T4. Sign the release.
Correct.
And you have a T-break at 6 o'clock.
Could you just say...
A quarter to 7, and then you break for a meal at 7.30.
Could you say the title of your new film?
You don't have to break for T at 6.
Eyes Wide Shut.
So figure it out.
My upcoming film, Eyes Wide Shut, Eyes Wide Shut, is all about secrecy.
All right, Terry.
It's an honor to be doing this.
These two men are a little far apart.
I am just sincerely thankful and grateful for this opportunity.
I want to thank you for doing this interview.
I know you rarely give interviews.
That's right.
Despite the fact that you never gave interviews.
That's true.
Do you need water?
Are you okay?
Let's stay there now.
We're really getting ready.
No, would you like something?
One other thing.
There's three beats when you do it.
When they say, This is my gun.
This is for fighting.
This is for fun.
Three shakes.
This is my gun.
Show your time to the thing.
This is my gun.
This is for fun.
So give it three because a lot of people are still touch and go.
You look at your incredible body of work, people think your art films are the best films ever made.
Considered by many, people think your art is the greatest film director.
You must be very proud.
Yes.
You know how we've always talked about the possibility of something going wrong with the bar.
But of course, like most perfectionists...
What exactly is the treatment going to be then?
I often wish I... Just need to show you some film.
Could have done things differently.
You little scumbag!
I've got your name!
I've got your ass!
You will not laugh!
You will not cry!
Stop it!
Stop it!
Please!
I beg you!
Well, what made you come?
The whole point of the dros de machine is lost.
If you keep it the secret, why didn't you tell the earth, eh?
I know you have some ground rules.
I know you have some ground
rules. . .
You want me to hold this footage for 15 years.
15 years after your death.
Before I can show it.
Am I clear on that condition?
That sounds about right.
15 years from the day of your death.
I love working for Uncle Sam!
Which, God forbid, I mean, I hope you make 80 more films or...
Let your rate.
Three more films or whatever.
Let me know in my ass just who I am.
Why the delay?
Let me know just who I am.
Upon greeting Kubrick, my idol, what can I say?
It's not that I wasn't as impressed as I thought I'd be, but he was, well, he looked tired.
He looked unkempt.
His hair was long.
He just looked like he'd been working himself to death.
And frankly, I was worried about him.
I had nothing to lose, so I decided to be honest with him.
No offense.
You look a little haggard right now.
Well, also, yeah, because I haven't been taking care of myself too well.
Because you look a little worn.
I've been drinking a lot, but...
Clearly he had something on his mind.
We are all, by any practical definition of the words, foolproof and incapable of error.
Well...
This is difficult.
Because it's the first time I've talked about it.
...or distorted information.
Sir, I... Just a moment.
That's fine.
Just a moment.
Take your time all the time you need.
I'm so preoccupied with my work.
Well he acts like he has genuine emotions.
Innovation.
Of course he's programmed that way to make it easier for us to talk to him.
Risk taking.
But as to whether or not he has real feelings.
Regrets.
This is something I don't think anyone can truthfully answer.
Why are you giving this interview?
Because it started to get to me after a while.
I've always been conflicted about it, I guess, but I wasn't conscious of it until years later.
At first, I was just blown away by the...
By these wonderful circumstances.
Chance.
And began his professional work.
The opportunity...
The challenge...
The end is not blue.
The cat finished third of the day.
Of making this...
This production.
And I went into it like it was a regular film, like another...
Sorry about this.
I know it's a bit silly.
Not thinking too much about the long-term effects, what it would mean to society if it was ever discovered.
What are you talking about?
It's puzzling.
How do you know what you're talking about?
Let me put it this way.
A confession of sorts.
A movie I made that nobody is aware of even though they've seen it.
A movie you made no one knows you made.
Is that what you said?
That's right.
Intriguing?
Do I have you intrigued?
I perpetrated A huge fraud on the American public which I am now about to detail involving the United States government and NASA that the moon landing was
fake The moon landings all were fake.
And I was the person...
Here's Johnny!
Who...
Who...
Don't dip me.
Okay. - Okay.
What are you tightening?
It blew my mind.
You're serious.
I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like this before.
I'm serious.
Why didn't you turn around?
I'm serious.
Okay.
The fake moon landing.
It's all based on...
It was fake.
A kind of mind-blowing situation.
Wait, wait.
The idea was to make you believe...
It was not real.
Leave it all the way.
D-60 seconds.
You really were watching that.
Well, let's get on with it.
The moon landing's perfect.
Sorry about this.
Okay.
Rumor is about a fictional moon landing.
On the bottom we're on the ladder.
Just one more step and I'm...
No one could have been unaware of the very strange stories floating around before we left.
Tranquility.
Holy.
Living.
A fantasy.
On the moon.
I never gave these stories much greetings.
The moon landings were fake.
But particularly in view of some of the other things that have happened.
It was fake.
I find them difficult to put out of my mind.
I don't want this to be an R-rated film, so I don't want to say what the blank, but seriously.
I know it's a bit silly.
I worked almost 8 months to secure this once in a lifetime interview that almost no one else could ever get and instead of talking about his 16 films that I've adored since I was being a child Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
I'm Frank Reynolds at ABC Space Headquarters in New York.
This is not from the Apollo 11 liftoff.
Where I thought the interview was going.
What do you think this mission will tell us about man?
Why in God's name would...
I can see you're really upset about this Tranquility Are you fucking believing this overspoken?
Over.
Launch complex 39 was cleared and we began to load liquid propellant into the launch vehicle.
I don't know what to ask you first.
If you're telling the truth, why would you do it?
Why the hell?
Why did you do that?
I didn't want to do it.
It just was...
It was against...
...my principles.
Well, I'm clear now, Mike.
Yeah, I mean, we understand that you are a dog.
This TV looks really, uh, great.
I just...
I thought it was wrong.
I just, I... Eleven, you got a pretty big audience.
You know, I didn't believe in perpetrating a fraud like that.
It was like...
It was like perfect.
How does it look?
Uncle Eric, please.
But you did.
Capcom, we're go for landing.
Eagle, you're looking great.
Eagle, you're looking great.
The Eagle has landed.
And we're getting a picture on the TV.
It also undermined my artistic integrity to do that.
I honestly think you want to sit down calmly Take holy motherfuck A stress pill and think things over Okay.
But you ended up saying yes.
Why?
Well, yeah.
Why?
The fucking moon.
*Dramatic music* It came indeed for all mankind Because *Dramatic music* Basically I was bribed For one priceless moment In the whole history of man To put it bluntly, Houston, uh, that's what it was.
It was just a plain fucking bribe.
Looking good.
I wanted the...
Roger.
The, uh, goodnight from a...
I mean, I just...
Brian, free contact.
You know...
I called his foot for once.
At that end, gave us a...
He had it on the way up.
He choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things.
And so doubt.
Not because they are easy.
I was a fucking whore.
I think a lot of things happened right here, and not all of them was good.
Why didn't you come clean in, you know, 75, 74, whenever?
I apologize, sir, for not telling you sooner.
You lied for 30 years about this.
Well, not anymore.
Today, war is too important to be left to politicians.
We're coming up on T-minus 32 minutes, 21 seconds.
Mark.
At the present time, all systems are go.
Bye.
Thank you.
All lights are green.
So you feel bad about this, clearly, I mean...
I do feel bad about it.
Wow.
I mean...
I also feel proud of it.
It's a terrible conflict.
Is that because of the stress of this?
Of course.
Stress.
Guilt.
Just conflict of all kinds.
Why is it important for somebody to take even this, consider that this might be truthful?
But someone could say, you know what?
This guy's off his meds.
He's going senile.
Stanley Kubrick's lost his marbles.
I mean, why should we question such a sacred achievement by America?
Why should Americans believe you?
you why should Americans even analyze this question?
You're taking our arguably greatest achievement and saying it didn't exist.
Thank you.
Bye.
Thank you.
I am devoted to truth.
Why did it take 30 years?
Get the president out of the way and hire Stanley Kubrick.
How about you walk me through it?
Stanley Kubrick.
I was contacted before I started making 2001.
The man who created 2001.
You kind of wonder if he made a deal.
Under the Masonic Moon.
And, uh...
When he was brought into it.
After Kennedy said his thing, you're saying?
How the deal was made.
Why are you telling me?
A massive fraud.
We are still go.
An unparalleled fraud.
With Apollo 11.
Perpetrated against them.
Unit going to internal power.
They should know.
I understand.
Why in God's name?
Thank you for telling me the truth.
Don't you think it's important for people to know the truth?
You deserve it.
And we are all about to witness the fulfillment of that promise that President Kennedy made.
It's about the ability to do things with military technology.
All that stuff they use for NASA, all the stuff they use for the stealth bomber, the space shuttle, all those missions, that's to fuel the military industrial complex.
It's no secret that NASA always wanted to fulfill this Kennedy prophecy.
We choose to go to the moon.
Landing a man on the moon.
In this decade.
This decade is out.
And do the other things.
And returning him safely to the earth.
Not because they are easy, but because they are hard.
Take it back to the beginning.
The way all our preparations were kept under such tight security.
That we didn't land on the moon, you're saying?
No.
Every split second of this historic flight.
Are successfully able to execute a touchdown and return.

We have inboard engines.
One.
Zero.
We have a launch commit.
We have a liftoff at 35 minutes after the hour.
Liftoff.
With my help.
With my aid.
And it is... bothering me.
Take a look at the beginning.
The way all our preparations were kept under such tight security.
We didn't land on the moon, you're saying?
No, we didn't.
Why did they have to fake it?
I'm just saying, why?
Why would the government need to do something like that?
Because it is I'm sorry in this decay.
I'm afraid I can't do that.
Because they are hard.
Ignition sequence start.
It's a little bit of a ring.
I'm a stretch.
Two.
Of the imagination.
One.
Launch commit.
Lift off.
Lift off.
With my help.
With my aid.
And it is... bothering me.
Okay, back up, back up.
You're telling me...
Why me?
Why not...
Why not CNN? Is that...
So that's the 15-year thing.
So that makes sense now.
That's why...
I can't release this for 15 years.
That makes total sense now.
Yeah.
And I'll talk about whatever you want.
You know, this isn't...
Some type of joke or...
No, it's not a joke.
Film within a film thing.
It's not a joke.
Nope.
Okay.
The conspiracy theorists were right on this occasion.
Why?
You were manipulated.
I was manipulated, but as my wife said, I made the choice.
This transmission is coming to you.
How about you walk me through it?
Stanley Kubrick.
I was contacted before I started making 2001.
The man who created 2001.
You kind of wonder if he made a deal.
Under the Masonic Moon.
One hoped that the boys would come home soon.
He was brought into it.
The mechanics of it.
They had seen Strangelove.
He requested use of the B-52s to film.
He'd sent the Pentagon the script, and they read the script and refused and said no.
Under the Masonic Moon He got pictures from Aviation Weekly and with his set designer, they rebuilt the interior and the exterior of B-52s using photographs.
They got word of this and they sent two people.
They visited England, where he was filming, to look at what he was doing.
And he actually told people on the set that he may get arrested here.
He wasn't sure what would happen.
One more day and they'll drop from the plane, splash into the ocean.
And they came on the set and they were like...
They were very impressed.
Completely blown away.
They were aware that you were in the presence of genius.
By the look.
They were very impressed by the final...
It was a great film.
Under the Masali It's one of my personal favoritists.
There was a difference of opinion.
There were some that just believed, honestly, that we will never be able to get there.
There's just no chance.
Some people didn't believe that you could go.
Well, Werner Von Braun, of course, didn't.
The director didn't think.
Werner von Braun and his conspirators got a free ride to the states.
It's radioactive half-life.
The man was just too brilliant.
They turned Nazi into NASA.
He knew that I'm convinced that in the space field we couldn't do it.
It is commonly believed that man will fly directly from the Earth to the moon.
But to do this, we would require a vehicle of such gigantic proportions that it would prove an economic impossibility.
The Russians are ahead of us after we are running as fast as they do.
They just couldn't wait.
I would think that there's still a considerable gap to close.
It would not be difficult, mein Fuhrer!
And only...
I'm sorry, Mr.
President.
Under the Masonic Moon The future will tell whether we'll manage To possibly, uh...
Close that gap.
100 years?
And the political, I mean, they'd spend all that money, I guess.
Now, I gotta be honest, I'm completely confused.
I mean, hearing about the Van Allen radiation belt and hearing about the technology problems and all of that propaganda, I don't know what to think.
Thank you.
That здоров is out of myança You had to experience in other roles You have to feel like I've played something You have to feel your freedom You have to feel no glands It's just like my dad I always feel like I've been getting things
I mean, hearing about the Van Allen radiation belt and hearing about the technology problems and all the propaganda, I don't know what to think.
What was the process of doing it like?
I certainly hope that we would take the more successful approaches that have been used in this kind of a program,
and find ways to apply those approaches to and find ways to apply those approaches to other problems.
We're a very good person.
great country.
We have a lot of abilities, and when we direct our efforts toward an understood goal, we usually solve the problems.
Committing the greatest fraud.
Swing on.
I'm not coming back.
What do you want to call it?
I'm not saying it's a...
I know, so I'm not making a moral judgment, but...
As our countdown continues.
Making this huge, ambitious, technical, faux landing, was it...
Skip Chauvin informing the astronauts that the swingarm are now coming back.
The heart of the 2001?
Was it very difficult?
I mean, what was the experience like?
Four minutes and counting.
This was the supreme challenge.
Why?
We are goal for Apollo 11.
Because it was absolutely necessary not only that people believe it...
...will be coming up in the automatic sequence...
...but they believe it in spite of...
The facts.
It's about 10 or 15 seconds from this time.
Everything I was filming was a lie.
The vehicle's starting to pressurize as far as the propellant tanks are concerned.
On a grand scale.
A Stanley Kubrick production.
There was too much riding on this whole thing.
You basically are given a blank check by the government.
You go where to film this?
Where?
Enormous soundstage.
We shot it in a studio.
They built one in Palmdale or Lancaster, I heard.
I don't know where it was.
Somewhere in Nevada.
1/10 scale model.
You can't say where.
Why, people?
No, because everything in Nevada Let's get started.
That's good enough.
Uh, fair enough.
So...
Okay, fine.
Let's just try one, okay?
This was all staged, and that's why the video was so crappy in many cases, especially when the, uh, the lunar module lifted off.
Uh, it just looked like third-rate video, and they did that on purpose to obscure the fact that it was a model.
This was...
Hey, why don't we just...
International.
The biggest fiction.
Is that the case?
Well...
Of them all.
Just a little bit of a, uh...
The audience is usually aware of the fiction.
This is a special kind of situation.
This was like a documentary.
And everything is go.
001907.
But...
At 17,400 miles per hour.
As much fictional as anything else they've ever seen.
Trying to make this trip possible.
I'm going to show you something.
We have to do it now.
Because we were so damn close.
What happens there?
You're on set.
And you gotta make a movie.
That no one knows is a movie.
You saw this sort of a once in a many lifetime opportunity.
No one knows it's a fiction movie.
Right.
Well, they don't even think it's a movie.
They think it's live television programming, but you're faking live television.
See, it even confuses me sometimes.
Well, it's meta-layered.
To play with all these billions of dollars.
I take it in, but don't look down.
To make movie that no one even knew was a movie.
I mean, you had to make a movie.
That's true, you know.
The ultimate.
Sometimes I actually believe in myself it was that good.
I'm on top of the world, eh?
You mean like when they have like the anniversary?
I'm on top of the world, eh?
Right.
Yes, this was the ultimate.
This was going to be my masterpiece.
I felt it even then.
I had to do this.
I wanted to do it.
I didn't care what was the reason for it.
I wanted to do it.
I needed to do it.
It was like getting the life, the assignment, the production dream of a lifetime.
I can fool people with this.
I am the greatest film artist of the 20th century.
Okay.
It must have been the biggest challenge of your life.
