It shouldn't be the basis of everything, and it isn't, but it surely helps that you have a calm and soothing voice. It makes me want to listen more lol.

this isnt even a quarter of the movie in clips why am i crying again

Great episode 👌
Love the after effects 👌

i dont know why i cried watching this

There were WAY more than three women. There was a whole department of African-American computers who did the mathematical scutwork for NASA. Any one of them could have provided an interesting story for a film. This is one of the ways that movies distort reality - anyone watching this film would think these three women were the first or ONLY Black women working at NASA, when in fact there were many, and these ladies were certainly not the first.

Ezt a filmet láttam.

Thank you for this video it is a great help👍😊🎭🇺🇸

what is up people

Tbh I didn't know this film was a thing until I saw it on TV once. I loved it instandly

I am getting goosebumps watching the analysis of this film, I am amazed especially at the symbols of change.

I see what you did there... explaining subplots on the Hidden Figures script is the ultimate meta-analysis!

Love your analysis.

Who needs university when we've got Lessons from the Screenplay? Excellent and memorable. Thank you very much!

good job LFTS, Can i get the link for this original score, its amazing.

hi tilly

Thank you for this video. It helped a lot with subplots in my own script

Wowzers - that conclusion was absolutely beautiful. Brilliant work again as always! ❤

I always learn something watching these videos.

I know this is very late so you probably won’t see it, but I just have to post this. I love the video as a whole, but have to offer a different take on Dorothy Vaughan’s subplot. IMO, her driving motivation is only tangentially to learn computer programming. Her main motivation is introduced in the beginning of her story—the lack of respect given to her as a supervisor. We learn right away that she is in effect the supervisor of the West Computing Group (the “colored computers”), but she is not given the title nor the pay for other supervisors because the higher-ups don’t see the need, probably because they are a group of women of color. She and her group are subservient to Kirsten Dunst and her East Computing Group (who have nicer office space and designate tasks to Dorothy’s group). 

Dorothy’s fight to learn programming wasn’t just for herself, but for her employees, and her being finally given the supervisor job was the acknowledgment she craved, but she realized by that point that she was willing to give it up unless they let her elevate her entire group as well. She was the ultimate supervisor, as well as a very smart woman with the computer, and that last shot of Dunst leading the new employees into the computer lab and introducing them to “Mrs. Vaughan” was the resolution to Dorothy’s supervisor arc.

Beautiful job!

Content is always amazing but the editing in this vid shouldn't be overlooked either

i could watch your videos alllll day

Great video, found the graphics really helpful to layout the structure, amazing job!

I loved the movie so much before, but this video has definitely brought my appreciation of it to another level. Great video!

Rewatched! Can't get enough of your videos! Also, awesome how you briefly explained how you made it.

I have finally found the YT channel for me. Hell, I watched the whole ad bcz I think the guy deserves it.

A better title would have been "Hidden figures: the power of woke media to blackwash history while soyboys and their fat SJW girlfriends clap"

Good work! I am working on multiple screenplays and of them all need compelling subplotting. Thank you. Appreciate it.

Love this film. Thanks.

I love your analysis! Thanks for putting so much for the care and craft into these videos! Keep up the good work!

What is the desire of the main plot?

I love this movie

Amazing. Thank you so much

I came

I'm a little late to your channel, but I'm so glad I was told about it. Excited to improve in my story writing with the help of these vids.

Darn it this video is good
Now I have to watch Hidden Figures

Thank you so much for sharing these brilliant and understandable insights - as a complete newbie to these concepts - I truly appreciate your work!

I thought Katherine's fight to get her job done despite resistance is bigger and more important than her love story.

Superb!!!

Great stuff!

Michael - you are truly a master of his craft...well done and thank you for helping to unlock a couple of issues I've been having with my own script!

Great video. Great work.

Thank You for creating this video. It helped me a lot.

thanak you

Worst explaination ,when you are explaining girst tell yhe story ,then go to yhe advance stuff

How one amazing true story is being analyzed. Not only did these amazing women do historical things. But is teaching us about why they're story mattered so much.

this animation with the subplots was very helpful thank you
