Review of Hidden Figures (2016) by Robert H — 23 Aug 2017

Not that my needed to be added to the heap, but here it is. I LOVED THIS FILM. I can't quite say why, but I found it deeply emotional. I watched it on a recent plane journey and wept through much of it causing more than a few concerned glances from my fellow passengers.

I wish I had watched it in the cinema purely because the audio was so bad on the plane, but even in spite of that it made me weep. I loved it so much that I very seriously considered watching again immediately after finishing it the first time.

Then I noticed that the in-flight entertainment system was showing Fast and Furious 8. I wish I'd watched Hidden Figures again.
