Q&A with Fred Haise, re Bill Paxton and Apollo 13

Apollo 13 astronaut and pioneer space shuttle Enterprise pilot Fred Haise talks about the movie Apollo 13, how the late Bill Paxton was apologetic to him because Mr Paxton just played a sleazy car salesman in his previous movie (True Lies, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger ), why the Apollo 13 film only featured one flight director (the "colorful" Gene Kranz) instead of the actual four flight directors in the Apollo 13 mission, and director Ron Howard's response when he complained about the inaccuracies and dramatic embellishments in the movie.
This Q&A is from the Thought Leader Series at Space Center Houston.
