Gifted Hands

 
You're probably starting to catch on that I like to watch biographical movies. This one is about Ben Carson who is a pediatric neurosurgeon at John Hopkins. He developed some incredible surgical procedures. I wasn't sure if I would like this movie, not knowing if it would focus just on racism. Don't get me wrong -- there are great movies focused on that, but I wasn't in the mood for such a movie. I was pleasantly surprised. The movie was more about God, family, and work ethic than it was about racism. In fact, there were only two instances of racism and they added depth to Ben Carson's personality. Very, VERY clean movie. Super good and inspirational.
