I realized watching this, it is the only time I've ever seen Gagarin interviewed.  He seems like a nice kid.

Yeah, I'd like to see that with English subtitles.  Even when I knew some Russian, I only had about a 50-word vocabulary.  :lol:

Going a little OT with this, as we're apt to do here--
Actor/comedian John (2 1/2 Men) Cryer is a huge space fan and a history buff on the Soviet program.  (He was guest host at this year's AHOF induction gala which I missed due to economic restraints.) Take away his usual goofiness, I could see him playing Gagarin if Hollywood were inclined to do a decent biopic on him.
