…movie potential. The Roy Krock movie worked because audiences understand McDonalds. Trying to explain the relationship between R&D policy and defense spending is much tougher. Although see Heinlein's "Destination Moon".
That's nothing new. Read what Heinlein has to say about the making of Destination Moon in 1949 in his Guest of Honor Speech at the Rio de Janeiro Movie Festival twenty years later. It was published in the posthumous tribute collection, Requiem.

……拍电影的潜力。Roy Kroc 那部电影能成，是因为观众懂麦当劳。但想把研发政策和国防开支之间的关系解释清楚，难度就大得多了。不过可以参考海因莱因的《Destination Moon》。

这又不是什么新鲜事。去读读海因莱因在二十年后的里约热内卢电影节上作为主宾演讲时，谈论 1949 年制作《Destination Moon》的发言吧。那篇演讲收录在后来出版的纪念文集《Requiem》里。
