In the late 1950‘s, America and Russia (then the U.S.S.R) were locked in a space race. Each nation was determined to place the first man into orbit around the Earth and eventually land a man on the moon. It culminated with Neil Armstrong being the first American to land on the Moon in 1969.
Prior to HIDDEN FIGURES, movies depicting the Space Race, such as THE RIGHT STUFF and APOLLO 13, focused on the exploits of the white astronauts, who were the pioneers of the space race. HIDDEN FIGURES is a historical drama about three hitherto unknown participants in the American space program. Most remarkable is that these unsung heroes were three African American women. Their contribution to the American space program went overlooked for half a century.
A local poll of Team TVWriter™ has discovered that our favorite of the nominees for Best Original Screenplay is Arrival and our fave nominee for Best Adapted Screenplay is Moonlight, with Hidden Figures right on its heels.
These screenplays and their competition are all worthwhile reading, which brings us to our Valentine’s Day gift for you. Here are links to all the Oscar nominated screenplays in this year’s competition. Except, unfortunately, The Lobster. Sorry, but we haven’t found that one anywhere. (Guess its producers don’t want to share the goodies.)
