Sometimes, nothing is a real cool hand.-Luke,1967.
I think they mean like overcoming obstacles, father and son wanting different things, following your dreams, getting away and breaking the norm. Things kind of like that. I'm sorry thouugh, I can't think of any at the moment.
"Living where there's free speech means sometimes you get offended."
Yeah like that. If you guys could help me out just 5 movies. That would be awesome.
sharealright, yeah, i get it. unfortunately, i can't really think of any either. If you liked october sky though, try watching "the war" with a kevin costner and a young elisiah wood. i know costner isn't exactly a-list anymore, but it's a decent movie.

One more movie with a really intense father/son difficult relationship is Return of the Jedi (1983).
It deals with a father and son who want different things in life, yet are able to reconcile with each other at the end.
Radio Flyer - not quite the same but still awesome

I just want to mention the overlooked Danish gem Kundskabens Træ (Tree of Knowledge) from 1982. It's about growing up in the fifties and the transition from child to young adult. Check out Roger Ebert's review (external reviews) ere on imdb. If there's any way you can get a hold of this film, don't miss out.
shareIf you want another Rocket Movie that's *kind of* like this movie then watch Astronaut Farmer.... I didn't like it much but it's there..
