Summary:
"Some people build
Fences
to keep people out-and other people build
Fences
to keep people in. Academy Award winner Denzel Washington and Academy Award nominee Viola Davis deliver the 'Performance -- derive masterpiece' of the year in the film adaptation of August Wilson's Pulitzer Prize-winning play. Set in 1950's Pittsburgh, the film takes a passionate look at former Negro-league baseball player Troy Maxon (Washington) as he fights to provide for those he loves in a world that threatens to push him down. Washington's directional triumph 'connects with people on a deep, emotional level' and pulses with the universal truths of love and forgiveness, despite what lies beyond your own fence."--Container.
