Review: A classic! - Just saw the movie and it was exactly like the book. August Wilson was a genius, a great story teller. As you read the pages, you are actually right there in the midst of the characters. When you see the movie, you'll know exactly what comes next. Denzel Washington did a great job as director and actor. The entire cast was awesome. It's a play by play in the rarest form. I want to see the movie again, with a bunch of friends. I certainly hope they make another movie from Mr. Wilsons play list.
Review: Really good book! - Teacher made me read this play for school. I really enjoyed it. A lot of parts made me cry. Says the n word a lot soooo tighten up ig 😝🤮
