Gravity (2013)

We're back in space and feeling the isolation and terror of Dr Ryan Stone. Gravity is an experience for science lovers and movie lovers alike and we both adored this movie! Abi fumbles through some orbital dynamics, Freda enters space therapy and we all learn that even great movies shouldn't steal scenes from animations about robots in love!

"It's space therapy!"
