Based on true story "Something the Lord Made" Biography, TV Movie, Drama, Alan Rickman, movie

It's really something the Lord made.❤❤, diploma man earning a doctorate honor in such racism of that time. Glory be to God.

Very inspiring.

I throughly enjoyed this true story. I now know who Dr Vivien Thomas is. When I visit JH hospital I will look for his portrait!

Beautiful movie, a masterpiece

Go Mos Def!

Oohh that's Professor Snape, the dressing threw me off a little bit but that's Snape alright that voice is recognizable

I heard it again...I cant finish this movie. Taking the Lord's name in vain is not a small matter.

I reversed the "like" because I heard the Lord's name taken in vain !!!

🙏🏽♥️🙏🙏🏽♥️🙏

Thank you Mr.Vivian Thomas rest well you will always be remembered for you love and hard work Continue to rest well❤

Beautiful movie I loved it thank you Mr. Blaylock For your hard work and dedication❤

109923 movie that I am watching. Dean.

Too much cussing not watching.

I really enjoyed this movie it shows how the mind and heart can come together and create something great beyond color but a respect for life

Great movie. Honestly, it's hard to watch such disgusting racist bigotry toward such a dignified, superior, intelligent man. Thanks for posting the movie. I wish there was more of a balance, more integration of modern and traditional medicines like TCM and acupuncture. You know that there is a technique in acupuncture where no anesthesia is needed. I've seen it with my own eyes. Imagine a world with less, much less petrol chemical meds, big pharma.

😊😊

I like scene in which Vivien is having a dream,it surely shows that that it the surgery had God's blessings

They were just using his intellect for their own interest, very sad. This movie shows how they steal from black intelligence for centuries.

One of the best movies ever made.

nyse history

Biography of Dr Alfred Blalock, and Vivian Thomas (Dr. Vivian Thomas ). was bitter sweet.

Thank you to those who were able to tell the story so beautifully!! True stories should be told!!

Excellent movie, had me in tears in the end not for being sad but for being so grateful this young man never gave up!

This movie got me emotional. Its a brilliant one.

I was in need of watching a movie like to regain confidence on moving on in my life... No matter how long it takes, acknowledgement comes... Just need to keep pushing and push hundred time more when ever you have born been Black.... It is such a hard mission, but at a end of the day it is a blessing ❤

Wow... a wonderful movie

Beyond a story of a black man overcoming racism and segregation, it's a story of an intelligent man that didn't have a formal education succeeding. Although it was from a selfish standpoint, Dr. Blalock saw Vivian Thomas' abilities and intelligence, and utilized him to achieve greater things.
While that honorary doctorate was portrayed as a great accomplishment, I feel it's akin to a lifetime achievement award. He was working in medicine for 46 years at that point. The hospital and his colleagues knew how invaluable he was, yet, they waited 40 years. I wonder, though, had he been white, if they would have given him that doctorate 20 years earlier.
Today, however, because of the over emphasis of a piece of paper, Dr. Thomas never would have had the opportunity to advance in his career at all. He would be lucky to be promoted to lab technician. And, unless he made some great contribution on his own time, using his own money, he never would have received a doctorate. That closed door mentality is shutting out those who can make a difference and advance society, based solely on academic prejudice.

Loved this movie. Thank you for educating the world about Dr. Vivien Thomas' accomplishments!

I can do that 🤔 I'm becoming a doctor 😂❤❤❤

I recommend ❤❤❤

Dr Blaylock should have enrolled him to help him earn a formal certification and qualification as a doctor. I didn't like the way he was dismissed and unacknowledged after the first breakthrough heart operation.

Please don't criticized me, is it true that on 1930's and beyond, black was always underclassed? Please forgive me as I'm seeing on rhis movie, like giving way to whites when passing by, sitting white infront and some other things, but i noticed that blacks are so respectful.
