I loved the scene in the movie when the guys at Houston are discussing firing the LEM engine for a course correction burn. The head engineer from Grumman says he can't promise it will work for that purpose. He said the LEM was designed to land on the moon, not to be used for course correction. Krantz replies with "I don't care what it was designed to do, all I care is what it WILL do. Then after the burn was successfully completed, the Grumman fellow is suddenly boastfully saying "How about that LEM".
