This was an excellent movie

Rating: Null/10 (14 February 2017)

I saw this movies and it was very inspiring. I decided I enjoyed the book so much I wanted to read the book. There always seems to be more information to be learned by reading the book. The movie screenplay was adapted well from the book The book went into a lot more detail about the women's lives and the events that were happening in the overall time period the story was taking place. There were some events in the movie that were not exactly correct. I went to ancestry.com and looked up some information on the women and on interesting thing was that Katherine Johnson's first name on her marriage license with her first husband was Creola. Also Katherine's parents both lived until 1971 and 1974 respectively. It seems to be implied that her mother might have been a widow and had time to watch her kids while she worked. In my research and in the book there is no indication that Katherine's parents ever moved out of West Virginia. Also for the sake on making a mundane story more interesting there is obviously some embellishment of the details going on. Over all this was a great inspirational story. Go see it! You wont feel like you cant get that time back!
