This is what happens when you have an intact family that prioritizes their children. You end up with stable, successful, and talented children. Cudos to the Washington family. Denzel is my favorite actor, his talent is great.
If only COlonial society would ALLOw for more stability in oppressed communities. Instead of being so backward and full of jealousy they were destroying to satisfy their Primal URGES to kill and destroy...alll so they can feel special and project themselves as the model.
This has been the result for many children of various types of households. There are also children who come from married or “ living with other for years “ homes that produce horrors. It simply depends on the mentalities of those who are guiding and raising the children.
I’ve heard of the play so I am glad it was bought to film for more to experience. Kudos for these men and their hard work in getting this to the masses 🙏🏾👏🏾
History repeats itself if we don't learn from it and pass the lessons onto new generations. These lessons are important for both descendants of slaves as well as descendants of slavers.
Thrilled! Can’t wait to see it again. Have read it and seen every rendition. Let’s lean in to our own history and culture. Our families. It’s the only way to change what needs changing/and keep what needs keeping. This is a watershed moment. It’s time mi gente, it’s time. Again! ❤
I appreciate period dramas; this one is worth watching. The tension between the siblings is palpably electrifying, and the performances of the actors, especially John David Washington and Danielle Deadwyler, induce mesmerism. The entrepreneurial spirit in John David Washington's character called Boy Willie is infectious, even I was left wanting to buy some land just to say I own some land and hope to grow produce. On another note, seeing Samuel L. Jackson's performance, though subtle, was rather refreshing, poignant and arresting. The major theme is family. Watch it!
John David Washington is a great actor and very handsome I have a crush on him ever since I 1st saw him in 1 of his movies I would love to marry him and makeout with him ❤😘❤️😘
You can tell those two most likely disagree about EVERYTHING and that JD is clearly the more militant kf the two.. but you xan also tell that JD would d!e for lil bro too
Are you being sarcastic? Besides, it's not a story about racism, it's a story about a family on a certain time period. Racism is very much presents and during that time, that is how people live daily.
Where are these black films that showcase getting rid of the ghetto culture that nearly plagues the entire african american population here in America? These "racism" films are getting old and the message has already been put across millions of times before. But fighting against ghetto culture??--- i dont see one black film being made about this
What exactly is “ghetto culture”? There are plenty of movies on black excellence! Open your eyes! You sound ignorant and prejudiced. ¡Aprende también sobre tu cultura afrolatina!
I'm really sick of these types of movies. Yall can't think of anything except for another group hating us , so that's why we are empowered? More victimhood movies? Spike Lee, Jordan Peele, now Denzel's family. We want to see a masculine black male that leads his family with a black wife. Not a slave movie, oppression movie, alternative lifestyle movie. Those are the only movie they are allow to produce. It has to be movies about division. They are working in an industry controlled be small hats. Small hats control distribution of films so the film has to have propaganda boxes checked. Dang shame. When Denzel played a lawyer defending a gay man. That's when Denzel was bought and paid for. He compromised himself to demons.
If people didn’t want us to be victims then they shouldn’t have victimized us. Unfortunately racism is a major part of our story in this country. Either way, you don’t have to watch the movie, there are plenty of good books to read.
@@ToLovelyJesus How about a current event movie about how we destroy ourselves with glorification of dysfunctional behaviors. We have did more damage to ourselves than the slave trade. 73 million babies deleted, black women have been convinced it's a human right. When planned Parenthoods founder put clinics in our communities to eradicate us. Black people convinced alternative lifestyles are normal, black men deleting each other on the streets of every city in America . Godless and fatherless . We listen to our enemies like they know better. They tell us to delete our babies, they push dysfunction and gangster lifestyles on our boys, Then they make movies like its another groups fault for our decisions. Most people are lost because they can't see the psychological warfare on American black people. They will defend what is destroy us, they have excuses and blame.

@@AmosArdent-zx6jj You're so silly. You think just because there's a black director and black lead, it's still a black movie. In order for these black people to work they have to make these types of movies. You have no imagination so you're easily entertained. Duh Duh durh!
They did this themselves as a family, they weren't handed anything. If you started a business today and had grown up sons who were capable, you would call on them to help.

Please do your actual research. The man was born in 1945 and is biracial. Because of that time period, he experienced the racism that was given to anyone who looked remotely Black. Since he was raised by his African American mother, him and his family definitely experienced it at full force. They had bricks thrown their home to the point where they had to flee their home.

@Bhead69, nice for you to have joined us. Now, why does a period drama of a southern black American family evoke victimhood to you? Freudian slip, isn't it? Ironically, it seems your admission lies in your quasi-mockery, since 'victim' was not uttered or alluded to once.

You took the words right out mouth..Thanks!
I wish this for every kid born into this world, loving, involved, and supportive parents.
Sons Sounds EXACTLY like Denzel!!
😄😄 I said the same thing. He sounds like a voice over with Denzel's voice.
I noticed that too. Strong lineage.
Did you hear that ?🤭❤️❤️🥰
I went onto a different tab and genuinely thought it was him
DNA is no joke!
They all have Denzel's voice. Amazing.
Now I can't unsee Denzel in John; I had no idea! Amazing family.
Love & respect. Lets go Washington dynasty!
Buying the land your family was enslaved on to build intergenerational wealth.
Stunning premise!
John sounds like Dad, Malcolm looks like him
I love John David Washington!!!
Me too!! He soo fine!!
Me too I would love to makeout with him
Now this is news. My favorite actor and his son’s production. Adding this movie to my watch list.
Wow. Denzel and his wife were not playing any games with the rearing of their children. I love this and can't wait to see the movie.
JD Washington looks like his amazing beautiful Mom and sounds like his dad.
I had no idea John was Denzel's son, my god such a fine example of an amazing black family doing phenomenal things!
This is what they fear the most. Young, gifted and black... ps They are proud of their own skin color. Very powerful
John David Washington is on his way to becoming a household name in the acting world. He is a phenomenal actor and gets better with time.
JD Washington is doing very well by his father’s legacy. Very happy to see his work. Well done brother
He sounds like his dad but looks like his mom. They raised him well.
Jeez John sounds JUST LIKE DENZEL.
Well done, Pauletta and Denzel, you have raised some talented, intelligent, young, conscious, black men.
So refreshing to witness right❤❤❤❤?
@vanellesmith4598 absolutely💯

You hear their fathers tone in each of the sons voices amazing
Exquisite eloquence
Awesomeness🎉🎉❤
The twins Malcolm and David I can see their parents in both young men I can't wait to watch this film
The first son to me sounds exactly like his father
They both do
John David pretty like his mama….
Stunning and brave
✨THE PIANO LESSON!!❤️💙_______________________________________________________________________________________________

Rhis is Black ezcellence right here, right now.❤❤❤
Sounds just like his Dad

He was also the Star of “The Creator”. 👍🏾
Excellence
Mr. and Mr.Washington's your children are nice
👑👑💖❤️👏🏿👏🏿
I can't listen to them both at the same time.

There parents taught them well… this interviewer trying to get them talking about the Election. That was low.
I wish there were more films about racism because nobody has ever really touched on that subject.
Don't think I've heard about it for over 600 years
