Why watch this film?
Based on the play of the same name written by August Wilson (who also wrote the screenplay for the adaptation), 'Fences' is a movie that relies heavily on the performances and interactions of its actors, much like theater. The result is a great work by Denzel Washington and, primarily, Viola Davis (who won an Oscar, a Golden Globe and a BAFTA for her role). From a microcosm, the film tells a story of a time of great transformation of society, particularly among African Americans in the USA and women.
