Gosh I almost broke to pieces when he was looking around the room at all the portraits including his, and all the young black doctors walking by because he opened that door. Thank you Dr. Thomas and Dr. Blalock.

Thank you Dr Thomas! I am alive because of you! Quadruple bypass was a success 8 years ago, and I am still going strong! β€

We need more autobiographical movies made like this!! This movie took me on a historically emotional ride and was beautifully written! I am thankful for Tiktok suggesting this movie. I never heard of Dr. Vivian Thomas until today but I am certainly thankful for his monumental contributions to the medical community!

I am 67 yrs. old now & I was born w/TOF. I saw this movie a few years ago & really enjoyed it. Because of
Dr. Thomas AND God, I was given a chance in life. I was 11 when I had TOF surgery in NYC, and now I
have 3 kids and 13 grandkids. Thank you, Dr. Thomas!

I owe these two men my existence. My father would have died as a blue baby in the summer of 1964 without them. I would never have been born. I know they can't read this, but I thank them.
An important film. More should watch it.

It took both Blalock and Thomas to succeed in this ground breaking surgery that saved the lives of many babies who would otherwise have no chance of survival. Yet, Blalock took all the credits. He could have helped Thomas in so many ways so he could achieve his full potential and have a better life. Yet all he did was helping himself and used Thomas as a cheap labour. I'm so pleased that there were so many eye witnesses and Thomas eventually got his recognition from the University, ironically not from the man whom he helped so much. Justice has been served! Though a bit too late.

This movie was amazing. I myself didn't go to college. For years i was the teacher assistant doing all the work. Took some time but I graduated from college online and became the head teacher of that very same classroom so proud of me πβ¨π« believe me YOU CAN BECOME ANYTHING IN THE WORLD! Teacher, doctor YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!

Dr. Thomas was surely gifted by God Almighty! This movie should be shown at every public and private school.

My mother wouldn't have grown up without the work this man did for the world. She had open heart surgery as an infant. Thank you, Doctor, for making a difference. I wouldn't be here without you.

This is the second time I've watched this. I had feelings of anger at the terrible way black people were treated, feelings of sadness, feelings of gratitude to that wonderful man.
It also makes me very grateful to the surgeons who saved my son's life, he was born with tetralogy of fallot and is a fine and healthy 15 year old now.
Thank you Vivian and Alfred.

The kind of movie that should be part of a highschools.
Just amazing
Thanks to all who helped bring this story too Life.
What a man and what a story of how he became a leader and how the world change from his first day he walked in to having his likeness hung along with all the others.
So amazing

Mos and Alan should have gotten awards for this. What a beauty of a film to show us the roots of a lot of our history.

I'm sure, that because of, Vivien Thomas........ Dr. Vivien Thomas, I am one of those recipients, who at the age of 10 years old, was one of the first patients to have open heart surgery, at Westchester county medical center in Valhalla New York, in 1969.
Because of his skills along with others, I am still.
Thank you, to him and others of color who truly made history. Those who didn't get the proper respect and acknowledgement., in the world of medicine and medical sciences. π·π¨π‘οΈπππ©Ήπ©Ίπ§¬
Then and now βΌοΈ
