Couldn’t hide my disappointment at the end when they were like [strong female character] was created from the stories of over fifty different scientists…

    That's how many historical movies and contemporary shows work though. Like, we all know CSI techs aren't clearing rooms like SWAT in real life. But the story is far easier to follow if we keep it to a few characters the audience knows.

    For sure. And ultimately they gave credit where it was due, which is nice but it was a bit jarring. I think that means the filmmakers did their job well and crafted a character I could identify with.

    Does the female aspect really matter because if not you could just leave it out... I’m sure many would still agree with you.

    Um… I don’t think it matters to me what the characters gender was, but it seemed like the least I could do since I wasn’t going to go back and look up the characters name.

    I think you’re reading something into my comment I don’t intend? Strictly referring to a character Ulana Khomyuk from the HBO miniseries here.
