The first one would not have been that difficult to fake considering all the technology they had hidden at that point, but real landings are easier to do now than back then. They needed to produce something to show engineering superiority to other countries and continue research. The Russians did some crazy things back then. They killed a dog in their first LEO mission with a living animal because they weren't figuring out safe retrieval before launching.
I'm not sure how anyone buys the footage of us being in "low earth orbit" even. Have you rewatched the first NASA space walks recently? Go do that if not. Also check out Dilly Gill's channel, he does some really good research and explanations on the HOW they were able to do all the filming/faking, would recommend that as well.
