The Lemon Fool

A really enjoyable film 'based' on the true story of three African- American women who worked at NASA and helped in the mathematics that resulted in the launch of John Glen into earth orbit. A remarkable untold story in that they were both women and black in the heart of the chauvinistic, racist south of america in the 1960's. It pointed out the indignities they were forced to endure and overcome. There is a fair chunk of Hollywood sentimentality but it does not spoil the film.
Worth the ticket price
