Hello!
Thanks for bringing this film to my attention. I'm yet to watch it.
I think one is not required to be a mathematician genious to get a fix like...
..."we'll be there in three days"
Were it me, - I'd came to the same conclusion too - without any NAs, chronometers and tables.
:)
Warm regards,
Tony
