    There’s a really fun mockumentary called Dark Side of the Moon which plays it (almost) totally straight about Stanley Kubrick faking the moon landing until the end credits when it shows all the “experts” cracking up. Really worth a watch if you can find it. It’s French but was filmed in English.

    There’s a very low-quality version on YouTube. Not sure where else you can find it.

      Wasn’t expecting to see Henry Kissinger in there. Rest in piss.

        Kissinger, but very craftily edited to say what they wanted him to say instead of what he actually said. The filmmakers went very far to make it believable.

      I just spent an hour watching this (instead of working, thank you FlyingSquid). This is amazing! That’s some exquisite editing!

        No problem. I’m sorry I couldn’t link to a higher quality version. I don’t remember how I got a copy but I don’t have it anymore.
