Have ya’ll seen October Sky? Awesome movie too!

I wish the captions were on the movie. It is hard to hear any movie audio. Enjoyed the reaction though! :)

[@luizasoi5601]

So glad I found you guys 😅

[@trinkab]

I have seen several reactions to this movie and no one ever seems to put together that the women are "compute-ers" not computers (like IBM or Apple) before computers were wire, silicon, and metal. They compute...as in do the computations. They are computing for a living. Compute-ers...or when said casual enough, computers Therefore everyone called them "computers" and called the IBM ...The IBM.

[@KelseyODonnell17]

It still bothers me today that Taraji P. Henson wasn't nominated for ANY awards for this. She should have gotten an Oscar, but didn't get nominated.

[@teamtoomany4820]

Agreed. She should have at least gotten an Oscar nomination.

[@lynni_111]

Seriously. I feel like everyone kind of expected her to get some sort of award for this. Kind of disappointed she didn’t

[@kklam4820]

Agreed. In some interviews, she described how she had to practice and memorize the movements of writing those equations... that's dedication to her craft

[@dragontears]

YES!

[@gabriellafreund3793]

For Katherine to receive that medal from the first Black president is really moving.

[@ambriaashley3383]

Absolutely! I’m so happy she got it while she was still here with us, & more people (myself included) could learn about these real hidden figures/heroes …

[@carladavis1473]

She would have never got it otherwise. She was 97!!! Took way too long

[@Rmlohner]

In real life, Kathryn Johnson simply started using the white bathroom without getting any permission, and was never caught. But they needed a more dramatic scene to show Kevin Costner as a credit to his folk.

[@beesbrownies]

Honestly a legend move

[@dragontears]

Yeah, Hollywood has to get its white savior moment in. Kathryn just using the bathroom secretly had to be scary. (But she obviously had a hella tough spine)

[@torontomame]

[@thunderatigervideo]

My grandmother was an associate math professor at UNM in the 1940s. My mother was the ONLY woman out of all electrical engineering majors at college until her senior year. I showed her this movie shortly after it came out and still remember how often she shook her head and interjected similar stories about being a woman in engineering. She also shared stories from my grandmother. I teach high school math and have a few of my own. Not nearly as many, and we’ve come a long way. But there is still work to be done and this movie does a great job in helping that.

[@AngelaSealana]

Lady power 💥

[@ladyhotep5189]

Nice

[@cflournoy1529]

Loved your reactions. I’m a 56 year old Black Woman and I’m sad to say that I never heard of these women until this movie came out. It just goes to show that OUR history is not explored in school like it should be.

[@annaliu908]

that is so true and sad. there are many women who did great things in the past, but not being memorized or appreciated for their incredible work enough. and even worse, sometimes, quite often actually, a woman's achievement was credited to her father, or brother, or husband. many great women became invisible in history cuz many historical books were written by men.

[@JeshuaSquirrel]

In terms of what was real, the telephone conversation of John Glenn from the pad to Control was taken straight from the transcripts. And the pilots were the final decision makers on every launch. If he didn't want to go, he didn't go.

[@BishopS]

I love how when you first see Jim Parsons, Eric was like "Its Sheldon!" but as you explore this character and how different he is Eric was like "Oh, Paul." when he does something

[@josephwilliams9209]

I just LOVE the fact that John Glen requested her to do the numbers. Basically he’s saying that he’s putting his life in her hands. That’s so powerful to me because of that situation happening in that era of time. I love this movie. I hope there are more movies made to show how us black people were apart in American innovation.

[@bethanychatman9531]

Exactly, showing the truth.

⁠@@billyboblillybob344 I don’t rely on Hollywood to educate me. I like the fact that they bring attention to some historical things. Of course you have to research stuff because Hollywood will tweak it to fit a entertainment agenda.

[@muwaahib2366]

Protect Aaron at all costs. Him getting visably emotional at Taraji's scene about colored bathrooms and the man taking down that sign at the bathroom made me emotional too.

[@roxysdg334]

Regarding the music , Pharrell Williams was co-producer and wrote most of the songs for the movie . He really wanted the music to sound like the times and was Inspired by music from The 60’s. He lived in Virginia near NASA and grew up wanting to work there. There is a video out there where Pharrell talks about it.

[@AngelaSealana]

Wow! I did not know that... Thank you!

[@roxysdg334]

I loved this movie and loved the music so much that I went out and researched all about it. If It comes on TV WE ALWAYS STOP AND WATCH IT! Just go out to Google and type in Pharrell Williams Hidden Figures soundtrack. Extra info and Fun to watch .

[@okashiad6930]

This should be required watching for everyone. Such a good, emotional, and powerful movie.

[@jatilq]

My blood pressure was high for most of this film. Decided to watch it tonight, before watching this reaction. I love that Eric understands its little things throughout the day that wear a person of color down.

[@trivonnereid769]

Yeah.

[@carladavis1473]

Most people don't get it. So yes I was glad to see that as well.

[@mrpatmichele]

LOVE this movie! Taraji's scene (with the, "there are no bathrooms for colored people") is my favorite performance of her, AND my all time favorite performance of any actress. I get chills any time I watch it, she really poured her whole heart into it!! (the only scene that came close for me in terms of acting/emotions is Angela Bassett's throne room scene in Wakanda Forever)

[@theideamaker2561]

Those two scenes are ones I actually know the full lines and full interactions to and they’re both amazing scenes delivered by very talented actresses!

[@bog4543]

ugh i really believe angela deserved that oscar

[@awelch31]

I wish I could tell you the whole story about my dad. He was another “hidden figure”. Worked for NASA, Northrop, and Boeing. He physically built something with his bare hands that’s sitting on the moon right now, then went on to work on the space shuttle, among many other military projects. But… the racism he had to go through is heartbreaking. My inspiration. Love ya pops. R.I.P. Hope to see you again one day ❤. He was light skinned too. Far lighter than me. None of that mattered on business trips to Alabama. Even his business partners who he thought were his friends looked the other way.

[@sheilaalcantara7738]

You should write a book about his life story!

[@mrs.spicer]

I honor him as an African American hero!

[@DBox3591]

Please write a book. Your Dad is, indeed, a hidden figure and I’d love to know his name. Thank you.

[@asteven8]

I met the author of Hidden Figures for which this movie is based by happenstance at work. I worked for the National Archives and she was researching in our NASA records and she was the sole researcher in the room that day and I was working the reading room desk. Normally we don’t bother the researchers but it was a slow day + she was friendly so I asked about her research. When she told me about these women and others who were human computers at NASA, I was gobsmacked. I had NO idea esp as someone who once dreamt of being an engineer myself. Cut to years later, her book came out and then the movie. I feel very fortunate to have met her and got a preview of her work before it hit big.

[@robertscott1949]

The symbol of the "passing of the chalk" from the very beginning when Katherine is a child is repeated years later when Katherine as an adult is asked by Director Harrison to explain the calculations in the meeting with the astronauts. We see Katherine pause for just a moment before taking the chalk and that gives us time to recall the similar scene of Katherine as a child.

[@dragontears]

I love watching movies with Aaron. He cries almost as much as I do, and I appreciate that a lot.

[@justmetoday5146]

Hans Zimmer is my favourite composer. Also, I've been the only Black women in a room full of White men giving my expert analysis. No one believed me or took my counsel. Later though it was "we should have listened to you." At which point, I was like "fuck you," but only in my head because I didn't want to lose my job.

[@Free.Clear3802]

😂 I've had that reaction too...u have to go in the bathroom stall and chew on your shirt!!!

[@kitterpuss1]

Oh so can relate ...🤨😒

[@wickedcherub]

I loved this movie so much. Janelle Monae is so good in everything

[@hleebeg]

A lot of it is having to earn the respect that everyone else in the room is just given or having to prove that you're worth basic common decency and I feel like everyone did an amazing job showing that.

[@bel410la]

This movie is so good, the scene where she yells at all the guys about having to go so far to pee is so iconic. I watched this with my sister for the first time when I was younger, probably a couple of weeks after it came out and thought it was going to be stupid and it's one of my favorite movies ever.

[@beckymarsch7116]

This is one of my favorite movies. Each woman accomplished so much but Dorthy not only taught herself 4Tran but also taught all the other women so she could bring them with too. She knew where the future was headed and made sure they were all ready for it.

[@knighthawk3749]

That's Fortran, not 4tran. It stands for Formula Translator. It was a computer language specifically designed for engineering and scientific uses.

[@DBox3591]

@@knighthawk3749I think she probably knows that but fell in the trap of how some people now abbreviate text such as u rather than you and r instead of are. I cringed when I read it, as well. I just can’t force myself to go that easy sort of slang route and maybe it’s because I need to stay true to what I was formally taught.

[@catherinesanchez1185]

They were still teaching Fortran in the 80's at the college level for Engineering majors. Rick's point about "old" computing languages is valid. A friend of mine who owns a small IT firm has gotten jobs because a lot of companies (big ones! ) are still using very old computer languages . All you have to do is look at countries that make an effort to create opportunity for everyone are doing much better in every way. Countries that severely restrict such a huge part of their population will never reach upper levels of achievement.

[@jordinevans985]

I love that they mention the refrigerator in this film. Makes me smile/chuckle every time. Seeing how that was created by a black person lol

i never thought u guys would actuallly react to this! it's rare to see people doing it. def one of my fav movies, really happy u got to check it out with us!

[@ianmoriarty2199]

I think you guys would enjoy watching For All Mankind, an alternate history drama where the Russians are the first to the Moon and where the space race never ended and kept going throughout the decades. It's a great character drama but also deals with similar subjects that Hidden Figures tackles, while also giving us a believable view at an alternate history and how the space race might have looked like had it not ended in 1969.

[@xoOlliemo]

The fact that Dorothy had to steal a book from the public library! The lengths to keep the odds down😢.

[@lilmiles4477]

When I saw this movie I thought this should be shown in every classroom. I live in Pittsburgh 2 years ago in York Pa this book was banded. If things stay the way they are these women will be lost to history and that is sad. Great reaction guys

[@mrs.spicer]

Banned!?!! That really grinds my gears.

[@carladavis1473]

The fact that one of these gentlemen teaches his child about Katherine Johnson in home schooling is (f)ing fantastic, and hardly no one reacts to this movie That just made me a subscriber. Thank you.

[@Rmlohner]

Janelle Monae revealed shortly after this film's release that she's pansexual, which gives a whole new subtext to her line "I have the right to see fine in any color."

[@No1Knows]

Sorry right off the bat, but I find the idea of "pansexual" hilarious. No matter what the other person identifies as, there are only 2 physical options to choose from.

[@Rmlohner]

@@No1Knows Pan also includes trans and intersex (which is absolutely a physical possibility).

[@No1Knows]

@@Rmlohner Trans is still only 1 of 2 physical options, and the highest estimation of the percentage of truly intersex people suggests most people will never meet, let allow physically interact with an intersex person. And to be clear, I'm not trying to be an a-hole. Find somebody...anybody... that you can love who will love you back.

[@LibertineDeSade]

@@No1Knows I understand that on an open forum people are going to share their opinions. And generally that's fine. But if you're not trying to be an a-hole, why even say this? Let people live their lives, and label themselves however they see fit. No one needs to know that you find their identities "hilarious". That's something you can keep to yourself and just choose to be kind.

[@No1Knows]

@@LibertineDeSade If non-response is the preferred "nice" method of disagreement, why did you feel the need to post a judgemental reply? I accept your opinion. I respect your right to have a conflicting opinion. Do I not have the same right to disagree with an opinion and say so? I accept and I love people. I think labels are sad. "Trey is my friend." should be enough. Society has made using labels like a badge of honor. I would get more "points" saying, "Trey is my gay Black friend," but I don't. Because Trey is my friend.

It's so well made and I'm so glad that these types of stories can be thrown into the public knowledge, the efforts of these women were so significant and they deserve all the praise. Also, being someone who doesn't know that much about the space race, hearing that my favorite moment of John asking for Kathryn was pulled straight out of history was a great little gift from your video. You guys always bring such great takes, always a bright spot in my day.

[@misshell]

[@shercahn]

I was in my Gifted and Talented group in elementary school and we were the first ones allowed to be on the computers which were kept in the school library when I was in 5th grade. By 7th grade, we had computer labs and they were teaching us DOS programming. And we had computer club where we played Carmen San Diego and Oregon Trail. At home we had an Atari gaming system and Texas Instruments gaming system. The TI we had tape cassettes that we had to load our games from like a Pirate Adventure where you type out the commands or Hunt The Wumpus. It's amazing to see how far we've come from just the 80's.

[@ladyhotep5189]

Ahhh the old Oregon trail lol

I recently wrote a paper on this movie because it’s absolutely brilliant. The way in which representation was brought to the screen was wonderful!

[@kobicalhoun8687]

You guys should definitely watch “42” next. Another great movie❤

[@carriesmith742]

I LOVE this movie. As a fellow West Virginian I feel a kinship to both this movie as a woman and to "A Beautiful Mind" due to having a math genius brother that died from suicide due to his schizophrenia. I worked at WVU for 2 years and every time the PRT went by I would think, "That was a project for the engineering department way back in the 70's or 80's to enable the students to move about both campuses easier." Beautiful WV minds are definitely worth it.

[@theadamabrams]

I really love this movie. Of course they took some liberties with the stories, but there is a _lot_ of truth in it too (both the racial issues and NASA structure). 43:26 There are more than 20 astronauts from Ohio. The joke is "What is it about Ohio that makes people want to get as far away from there as humanly possible?"

[@kennethsmith6367]

As an Ohioian my guess is that we are just goofy enough to try anything. Especially if people say it can’t be done.

[@ta2gypsy]

Another fantastic woman was Jack Black's mother Judith Cohen. An aereospace engineer, Ms Cohen helped save Apollo 13 whilst in labor to deliver her now famous son, Jack Black.

[@artboymoy]

Looked into the cigarette thing, someone on Reddit or a forum said that having someone smoking on screen makes it an automatic rating of "R". Don't know if that's true or not but if it was, it's a good call to take them out in order to push the more important story and to get it in front of more eyeballs as possible.

[@nealaluna]

I'm glad this went in this direction because older elementary school students have been able to watch the film at school.

[@sarahcarter971]

it may also have to do with the fact that if you have smoking on set they have to give every actor, stand-in, and background actor what they call smoke bumps meaning they have to pay them more for every scene they have to work around any type of smoke whether it be from cigarettes, smoke machines, etc. This became a law in the union since smoke is harmful to anyone around it.

It just recently got to the point where they couldn't update it to work with modern systems. And that's only because it became to hard to find programers who could work the coding.

As the only black woman engineer in all of research when I joined my company, I related to this movie on so many levels. Just watching your reaction to the movie and excerpted scenes, I was brought back to reacting the same way I did when I first saw the movie, a lot of tears. During the after movie discussion, I cringed every time the black women were referred to as colored (not in the movie because that was the term at the time). Just because that was the word used at that time, does not mean you should be using that word today unless it is critical to the point you are trying to get across.

[@wittleMermaid13]

Great post-analysis! Apparently, it was true John Glenn requested Kathryn Goble redo the math because he didn't trust the computer! I'm sure that scene was amped up for Hollywood but it happened!

[@andreasvogler1875]

Stuff like the IBM not fitting through the door still happens. I work in a movie theatre and shortly before we opened, we got the screens delivered, but when they tried to carry the biggest screen into the auditorium, they realised, that they couldn't get the roll around the corner, because the screens scaffolding was in the way. So they tore down half the scaffolding. But they still couldn't get around the corner, because the outside wall, behind the scaffolding was in the way, so they punched a hole into a pony wall above the entrance, to create the necessary room. That little planning oversight must have cost thousands of Euros.

The reason those computer cards remind you of scantrons is because scantrons are basically those turned sideways. My grandfather invented the scantron...but was a terrible businessman and thus I have no scantron money. I should be a scantron heiress!

My wife always jokes that she can only get me into the theatre to see Superhero, Fantasy, or Sci-fi films. We went to see this. As I told her, these women are Superheroes!

I was just thinking the other day that I wish someone would react to this movie. It's definitely underrated.

Back in the day, I had the opportunity to meet Sen Glenn many times through my work. He was more than a senator to me--he was a walking/talking American hero. He once took my cell phone and said to me, 'You have more technology in this phone than the entire NASA program had when I was flying.' That gives one pause. That is why President Eisenhower wanted test pilots for the space program. On another occasion, decades before this movie was a glimmer, he shared that 'Katherine' was his last check.' She was like a talisman for him. Then this movie came out years later and really brought context to his remarks about her. These were not public comments, either. Just sharing his experiences. When going to the Space and Air Museum in DC and seeing his craft. THAT marks real heroism and grit. What looks terrifying to me, was just another challenge to him and other astronauts.
