WOW ensemble! Much deserves award for for best ensemble cast for casting director. Is that a thing? Let’s make it a thing. Perfect 3 stars in Henson, Spencer, and Monae with support from Costner, Dunst, Parsons, and Ali. Great characters with BIG personalities. Tells fascinating serious story with PLENTY of humor. Doesn’t hold racist history back, very straight forward and honest about it. Can’t say enough about Henson’s performance, should have been nominated along with Spencer. Maybe passed at Golden Globes, but must see movie in competitive year. 4 Paws up!

“I think it’s kinda sexy that John Malkovich has a portal, y'know, sort of like, it’s like, like he has a vagina. It’s sort of vaginal, y'know, like he has a, he has a penis and a vagina. I mean, it’s sort of like… Malkovich’s… feminine side. I like that.”

Here’s the first look at Hidden Figures, the story of pioneering yet unsung Black women—namely the “human computers” Katherine Johnson (Taraji P. Henson), Dorothy Vaughn (Octavia Spencer) and Mary Jackson (Janelle Monae)—who worked at NASA during the intersection of defining moments of the American Century: the Cold War, the Space Race, the Civil Rights movement and the quest for gender equality.

R.I.P. Sir John Hurt…one of the most versatile and memorable of actors. (Sir John Vincent Hurt, CBE; January 22, 1940 – January 27, 2017)
“We are all racing towards death. No matter how many great, intellectual conclusions we draw during our lives, we know they’re all only man-made, like God. I begin to wonder where it all leads. What can you do, except do what you can do as best you know how.”
