National Film Registry?!!


At least according the wikipedia entry for the National Film Registry, The Right Stuff is not listed. It is a travesty that this classic film -- let alone its depiction of true heroes at a moment in history -- is not included. It should be.

I just saw it again, and was moved just as the first time I saw it. Maybe even more so with the understanding of age.

I don't know who to lobby, but this film deserves to be preserved for future generations.

I'm surprised no one responded to this sooner. The people to talk to are the Library of Congress. They'll have all the information you want about the nomination and selection processes.

The Right Stuff was added to the National Film Registry in 2013.
