"The Dish" is a 2000 Australian historical comedy-drama film that tells a somewhat fictionalized story of the Parkes Observatory's role in relaying live television of humanity's first steps on the Moon during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969. Directed by Rob Sitch, it stars Sam Neill, Patrick Warburton, Kevin Harrington, and Tom Long. The film was a critical and commercial success, praised for its storytelling and humor. It's an interesting look at a less well-known aspect of the moon landing, showing the role that international cooperation and "the dish" in the middle of an Australian sheep farm played in broadcasting one of the most significant television events in history.
