Fences Review | Anatomy of a Movie

Hosts Phil Svitek (@PDSvitek) and Demetri Panos (@DMovies1701) discuss the 2016 film, Fences.

A working-class African-American father tries to raise his family in the 1950s, while coming to terms with the events of his life. Troy Maxson (Denzel Washington) makes his living as a sanitation worker in 1950s Pittsburgh. Maxson once dreamed of becoming a professional baseball player, but was deemed too old when the major leagues began admitting black athletes. Bitter over his missed opportunity, Troy creates further tension in his family when he squashes his son's (Jovan Adepo) chance to meet a college football recruiter.
