Fences

Aussie and the Scotsman talk movies

This week we review the 2016 American period drama film Fences directed by Denzel Washington.

It stars Washington and Viola Davis (who won best supporting actress) in the main roles.

It follows a working-class African-American father who tries to raise his family in the 1950s, while coming to terms with the events of his life.

If you love good quality movies - with powerful acting performances - you will really enjoy this.

Definitely a must watch before listen as we don't want to spoil it for you.

This is one of our early podcasts - quick and to the point.

While the Aussie struggled with the first 30mins explaining: "Denzel was angry and dismissive.....half senile, semi drunk, a ranter and raver" . The Scotsman tries to explain that this is his role. And not liking him means he did a great job.

Viola gives the speech of the century.....and wins her Oscar. Denzel lays it on thick with some intense monologues.

Emotional, powerful, intense and passionate this movie is worthy of all its accolades.

For movie aficionados and lovers of great acting.
