Uncommon card · No. 178002

Project X is a 1987 American science fiction comedy drama film produced by Walter F. Parkes and Lawrence Lasker, directed by Jonathan Kaplan, and starring Matthew Broderick and Helen Hunt. The plot revolves around a USAF Airman (Broderick) who is assigned to care for chimpanzees used in a secret Air Force project. He questions the ethics of the situation when he discovers one of them can communicate with sign language and subsequently learns they will not survive the tests. Hunt's character raised the chimpanzee and taught him sign language before her program funding was cut. She was promised he would be sent to a wildlife preserve, but, as Broderick's character finds out, that was a lie.
