 October Sky October Sky Quote: October Sky is a 1999 American biographical film directed by Joe Johnston, starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Chris Cooper and Laura Dern. It is based on the true story of Homer Hickam, a coal miner's son who was inspired by the launch of Sputnik 1 to take up rocketry against his father's wishes, and who eventually became a NASA engineer. Most of the film was shot in Morgan County, Tennessee, with parts being filmed in Roane County, Tennessee in the towns of Oliver Springs, Harriman, and Kingston, Tennessee. Decent, though I found it to be quite slow. B-

A decent movie, and another notch on the belt of good performances from Chris Cooper.

Re: October Sky They showed this movie and Remember the Titans SO OFTEN in my high school.
It's a nice, sweet, nostalgic movie. Lots of good actors in it, too.
