  Aug 28, 202627 minS7

  In which the Mister and Monsters join me in reviewing HIDDEN FIGURES (2016), from the book Hidden Figures: The Story of the African-American Women Who Helped Win the Space Race by Margot Lee Shetterly, a script by Allison Schroeder and Theodore Melfi, the film is directed by Theodore Melfi. Three brilliant African American mathematicians—Katherine Johnson (Taraji P. Henson), Dorothy Vaughan (Octavia Spencer), and Mary Jackson (Janelle Monáe)—serve as the brains behind one of the greatest operations in NASA history: the launch of astronaut John Glenn into orbit. Operating in a segregated work environment during the height of the space race and the Civil Rights Movement, these trailblazing women shatter racial and gender barriers to perform complex calculations that propel the United States forward. Through their remarkable intellect, resilience, and unwavering determination, they prove their indispensable value to the space program and secure their rightful places in history. The film clocks in at 2 h and 7 m, is rated R and is currently streaming on HBO Max but also available to buy/rent on Prime Video. Please note there are SPOILERS in this review. This one goes out to the lovely, incandescent and amazing Sabina - HBD (and don't you act like this isn't happening) and we're sending you with all the love in our hearts onto your new journey XO #HiddenFigures # MargotLeeShetterly #AllisonSchroeder #TheodoreMelfi #KatherineJohnson #TarajiPHenson #DorothyVaughan #OctaviaSpencer #MaryJackson #JanelleMonáe #AlHarrison #KevinCostner #VivianMitchell #KirstenDunst #PaulStafford #JimParsons #ColonelJimJohnson #MahershalaAli #LeviJackson #AldisHodge #JohnGlenn #GlenPowell #Ruth #KimberlyQuinn # KarlZielinski #OlekKrupa # SamTurner #KurtKrause #JimWebb #KenStrunk #YoungKatherineColeman #LidyaJewett #MrsJoyletteColeman #DonnaBiscoe #JoyletteJohnson #ArianaNeal #ConstanceJohnson #SaniyyaSidney #KathyJohnson #ZaniJonesMbayise #LeviJacksonJr #TreStokes #SelahKimbroJones #CarolynMarieJackson #HowardVaughan #CoreyMendellParker #LeonardVaughan #AshtonTyler #KennethVaughan #AlkoyaBrunson #YoungerJoyletteColeman #KaranKendrick #JoshuaColeman #JaidenKaine #MarionSmithson #GregoryAlanWilliams #Docudrama #PeriodDrama #Biography #Drama #History @HBOMax @PrimeVideo⁩ #FridayFamilyFilmNight Opening intro music: GOAT by Wayne Jones, courtesy of YouTube Audio Library
