    This movie was TREMENDOUS! And Taraji knocked it out of the park! This movie should be MANDATORY for all school age children.

      It will be mandatory because it preaches that while males are bad.

      D Storm mandatory because it's inspirational and funny. White men have been the bad people for a long time according to history. No one is going to see the film in that light. This movie is based on true life events, so is everyone going to pretend the white males have done nothing wrong? Honesty, I don't view this movie in that light

      Jan Valach ...
      It was a true story...
      These women were extremely crucial in the mercury missions.
      If Katherine wasn't there at the time, John Glenn wouldn't have taken off.

      Cecilia Martinez The head of NASA who was white was the one who killed off the segregation in NASA.
      And most people at the time in southern Virginia were racist.
      It's not saying that white men were terrible creatures.

      Same is true for women, although slightly less so. I'm one of three girls in my physics class, as well as calculus, it's the same three girls in both my math as science classes, (also to acknowledge race, two of us are white and one is mixed but light skin so I see your point too) and it's been that way for all of high school

      You know it's funny, my friends in college who are all black women claim that they don't like math... but they all love physics...which is basically just math. I think because of the lack of encouragement in this area, we make assumptions about our abilities. The moment that I decided that I was good at math, I did well.

      yes, it's clear he's not comfortable. not sure he chose to do this interview. I'm guessing it was assigned to him and he just went with it...trying to fake some connection. I lost interest when he mangled Taraji's name! It's clear he didn't know her work...

    • @SquidandCatAdventures
      @SquidandCatAdventures 8 лет назад +25

      I agree he seemed uncomfortable, but at least he was trying. He was trying not to offend anyone. There are plenty of openly racist people to worry about in the world, like your president-elect for example and his KKK followers, before we go picking too much on the ones who don't actually want to be racist.

    • @mkmgramirez
      @mkmgramirez 7 лет назад +3

      Squish when discussing racism, one will offend. however the efforts to be honest, learn from each other and come up with solutions overrides that offense. at least when both sides desire to change. it is like resolving conflict with your spouse. you are going to offend them sometimes but when both of you desire resolution, you shrug off the offense. I've had a race conversation with my bible study group which is ethnically mixed. a sister and I was able to have a deep conversation even when I said something that I knew was hurtful to her but she was able to understand why some black women feel hurt to see a black man with a white woman

      Nae Nae so you are taking my honest loving caring comment and making it something negative? I am Native American and in the community I grew up in we didn't learn about African-American people doing awesome and amazing things we were white washed with white privilege morons and lied to in history class and science class and possibly many other classes as well. The schools I went to in elementary and middle and high school are all Southern and I had no choice as to where I went to school growing up. Everything I learned in my life after high school because I watched documentaries and I read a lot of books and I watched a lot of movies about true life events.

      I agree, it was awkward!

    • @dcmc7383
      @dcmc7383 7 лет назад

      Agreed. I think it was awkward more because of the time constraint on his show trying to cover weekly topics versus this HUGE topic. Chris Matthews really tried to get in-depth about both the movie and how people of color were treated during the Jim Crow era but couldn't get it all in. That's a LOT of material so he was rushing a bit. I think he should have taken the time to do a REALLY in-depth interview and then showed edited (timely) parts of it over more than one Hardball. Maybe even dedicated 20 minutes each week during February, which is Black History month.

    •  7 лет назад +4

      I completely disagree with this sentiment. Chris Matthews is not uncomfortable around black people. If there's an awkwardness, it's because his show does not revolve around entertainment. It's a political show where Chris is usually very direct.

    Taraji is so beautiful. I wish he would have asked about Katherine's relationship. It's a feet in Jim Crow era for a widower and a war man to get together at the height of their careers and maintain a relationship for over 50 some years. Loved, loved the proposal too! Get it in Boggs!

    I watch every second of this moving movie over and over, with each of these phenomenal actresses, , film score, and the excruciating time period! Appreciated watching women geniuses! My Dad did calculations for the Atlas booster, so Kevin Costner brought my Dad back to life with his crew cut, white dress shirt and tie, surrounded by calculators and punch cards for room size computers!

    I love this movie! The acting was great, the music was superb and the story just unfolded. Taraji & Octavia & Kevin always "make the character". But this was my 1st time seeing Janelle -AWESOME! Not sure if its her 1st role, but she pulled it off...effortless. Great director work... GREAT girls night film!

    Why we never read that story in history books see black lives matter

    • @arx754
      @arx754 5 лет назад +1

      Because all of the history books used in schools are written by WHITE MALES. I'm a 65 year old white woman, and I'm ENRAGED that I was taught in school, growing up in the US, that EVERY accomplishment in this country was done by WHITE MALES. And, frankly, it was only when I was in high school that I started questioning that premise.
      Totally SUCKS that if you weren't a WHITE MALE, you received NO CREDIT for that you did. Instead, a WHITE MALE took all the credit for your work. We have been ROBBED, in this country, by what we were taught as children. And, yes, I am a FIRM believer in that the BRAIN has no color, no gender, no religion, and no sexual preference.

    We just watch how these three lovely women empowered their rights at NASA as one of the greatest women in history. Not only they are women, but also an African American women who stands bravely against racism. But the saddest part is. America still has this discrimination attitude against their nature until this day.

  • @danbev8542

    I LOVED this movie! I love these stories of these remarkable people. Costner is right, this should have been told a long time ago. I loved the 3 performances - loved the way Henson/Katherine kept poking her glasses up on her nose! I’m a 75 year old white woman who was totally oblivious to these stories and situations at the time. I learned about being a woman in a mostly male profession in the 70’s and that was NOT easy! To have the double whammy of being black as well…. What brilliant, beautiful women they were! One more note: I’ve never read a more terrifying book than “The Help”.
