Hacksaw Ridge
During World War II, Desmond Doss served as a combat medic who also earned a Bronze Star Medal. At the Battle of Okinawa, he saved 75 wounded infantrymen atop Hacksaw Ridge, for this act alone he received the Medal of Honor. What’s most noteworthy about all this, he is the first conscientious objector to have even received such a distinguished medal.

Jackie
Former first lady Jackie Kennedy sat down for an interview with Life magazine after the assassination of her husband. As a result, the film is based rather heavily on that interview. Two weeks after the assassination, Jackie remained on board and even asked Lyndon B. Johnson to rename the space center in Florida to the John F. Kennedy Space Center. Johnson did so without a moment’s hesitation.
