Richard Linklater (Dazed and Confused, Slacker, School of Rock) takes you back to the space race era with his film, “Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood.” It's an animated period piece that's steeped in ‘60s nostalgia, but also speaks to our world today. He joined Tom when the film first came out to talk about growing up by the NASA space station, what it meant to have a “free-range” childhood, and how it inspired “Apollo 10½.”
