Best movie of 2016 (No Spoilers)

Rating: 10/10 (25 June 2017)

This tied with one other 2016 film for "Best Movie" in my book. A surprising performance by Costner -- he finally "does it" for me in this film -- but the three co-stars took my breath away. Spencer I know and always watch no matter what the movie is, and her story as well as Monae's really point to major issues that specifically targeted African American women trying to establish themselves in the professional arena. (Separately, you clearly see the women in engineering issues, but women of color were historically known to have the hardest struggle in the US.)
Henson's performance just made me want to hug her. Amazing job. (I can't even tell you my favorite part because it will be a spoiler, but it's one of the scenes with her and Costner.)
My women's group has the DVD in our library and we've all really enjoyed it. Highly recommended.
