OK, now I feel old.

I remember Gemini launches and spacewalks not to mention staying up late 
to watch Armstrong step off the ladder and blow his line.

I mention that because it's the ONLY Apollo mission that I remember watching on TV back when it was happening.  :)

I don't know if the scenes were added for dramatic purposes or not, but it has always puzzled me whenever I see it. I meant to ask a long time ago and seeing it tonight on BRAVO made me think about asking. I'll ask Ron Howard the next time I see him. :)
