   • Author: Sarene Leeds

   • Titanic. Released: 1997. Rated: PG-13. Memorable quote: “A woman’s heart is a deep ocean of secrets.” Twenty-five years after its release, our hearts still go on for James Cameron’s Academy Award–winning romantic drama.
   • 12 Years a Slave. Released: 2013. Rated: R. Memorable quote: “I don’t want to survive. I want to live.” It is nearly impossible for a movie based on a true story to avoid taking any creative license, but 12 Years a Slave comes very close.
   • Argo. Released: 2012. Rated: R. Memorable quote: “This is what I do. I get people out. And I’ve never left anyone behind.” Despite being a gripping spy thriller based on the very real extrication of six American diplomats from Iran in 1980 by CIA operative Tony Mendez (Ben Affleck, who also directed the movie), this film took a lot of creative license.
   • Hidden Figures. Released: 2016. Rated: PG. Memorable quote: “On any given day, I analyze the velometer levels for air displacement, friction and velocity. And compute over 10,000 calculations by cosine, square root and lately analytic geometry by hand.”
