Mrs. 03hemi and I will have to check that out, doesn't seem to have any actors/directors we're boycotting in it.

Saw the play version once. It was very well done, if a bit slowly paced. Fascinating, horrible piece of history.

There is a memorial and statue of the Radium Girls in Ottawa, IL, just down the street from the dial factory. Worth a visit if in the area. Ottawa was also the site for the first Lincoln Douglas debate in 1858.

Ah just realized this movie is now on Netflix. Perhaps it was before it’s just my first time seeing it. As a few interesting aspects of history in the story

Well this is old news but watched that movie radium girls. Kind of dumb of me but I expected a little more about watches in the movie. It certainly was a decent movie and a story that deserves to be told but I thought it was a bit disjointed, interesting nonetheless.
