Hidden Figures: It All Adds Up - The Making of Hidden Figures

I really enjoyed watching this film. It does a really good job of showing how much more a women has to do to gain a spot in the team. It also shows how much more an African American Lady has to work and put up with ignorance just to be excepted into the facility. This movie does a really good job of showing all the struggles women had to go through at work. But it also shows that there are people that want to help these African American people by, not seeing color. One of my favorite parts of the movie was when Kevin Costner who was play Al Harrison gets rid of all the colored bathroom signs and says "here at NASA we all pee the same color.".

It is true why are there not more reviews for this amazing film? I saw Hidden Figures, (clever title) at the movies and loved it. As truthfully depicted in the film, John Glenn would not go up in space until he got the hand done calculations of Katherine Johnson projecting exactly where his capsule would land after the mission was finished. The team of mathematicians used at NASA in the beginning before computers really took off had two strikes against them; one: they were women, two: they were black women. There wasn't a bathroom for them in their own work building even though our space program was dependent on this amazing team of women. Another indignity and disgrace, not to mention getting their due. This is a beautifully shot, fleshed out script, nice character development and a fine cast. Not to be missed.

Not only is this one of a tiny number of films in which women scientists, engineers and mathematicians actually seem like real people - it is fun and makes you feel happy, and the music is terrific too.

Having worked in a predominately male field for nearly 30 years now, I can certainly relate to how they felt. I just love Octavia Spencer, she did an amazing job in this movie.

A really pleasant true life, family friendly film, filled with wonder and history.
