We just resubscribed to #Netflix to watch #TheSixTripleEight #6888thBattalion, and what a movie! Well worth it. Smiles, tears, and a massive dose of respect.
Now, to cram a few more movies in before we let the subscription lapse ... again.
The Six Triple Eight
Written and directed by Tyler Perry; starring Ebony Obsidian, Kerry Washington, Milauna Jackson, Shanice Shantay, Dean Norris (2h07m)

Netflix/Rating: C

Granted, I am well known for crying at movies.
But DAMN
I started during the opening scene, and the end credits just finished rolling and I haven't stopped yet.
The 688th was the only all-Black battalion of the US Women's Army Corps sent to Europe during WWII. In Birmingham, England, they were given 6 months to deliver 17 million pieces of backlogged mail to soldiers at the front. They did it in less than 90 days.
