Hidden Figures
Why I’ve Picked this choice – Hidden Figures is by far one of the most entertaining history lessons of how backwards the world was still in the 1960s, we follow three black women that worked at NASA with the numbers, before they all breakout into the expertise fields to be part of history of landing on the moon. If you ever want to see how hard people worked despite being pushed down, these women prove this will forever be important. We have some of the best all around performances in any film, with Taraji P Henson, Octavia Spencer and Janelle Monae all shining, while the supporting cast of Kevin Costner, Kirsten Dunst, Mahershala Ali and even Glen Powell small screen time make the most of their scenes and they will be seen as wonderful to see. Finally anything that has anything to do with the space race is something I could watch any day of the week.
