This was screened in one of my classes today and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. A nice slow burn study of a female scientist and a time period that didn’t view our her as equal to her male colleagues, which makes it difficult for her to thrive. We do see that she eventually gets to be a star but the journey is left to be desired. Brie Larson was fantastic and I thought the screenplay was very sharp and engaging. I’m going to be watching this with Six Feet Under. I’ll probably pick this back up next week.
