The Rocket Movie
Jan 01, 1988 · 32m
Director
Larry Fessenden, David LeslieOverview
THE ROCKET MOVIE takes you back to that hot summer night when David Leslie attempted to launch himself over a mountain of watermelons on a Soho street before a crowd of 2,000 dazzled spectators. The story unfolds with the narration of veteran Hollywood stunt coordinator Gary Zeller (DAWN OF THE DEAD, RAGTIME, SCANNERS), who "put his reputation on the line" to collaborate with the Impact Addict. Filmmaker Larry Fessenden brings to this stunning documentary all the passion and drama of that spectacular night: As James Brown look-alike Jack Dingas pumps the crowd with an American anthem, our Rocket Man climbs aboard his bastard craft and bids farewell to the woman he loves—only to end that night in a near fatal fiery crash.
