The movie is based on August Wilson’s play, which won the 1987 Pulitzer for Drama and the Tony Award for Best Play that same year. It’s about a 53-year-old Black man who struggled to provide for his family, as he tried to make a living through trash collecting after he couldn’t realize his dream to become a professional baseball player, which was something he was very good at.
The official trailer of the movie was released on Tuesday and once again, Washington did a masterpiece in directing the movie. He is well known for always putting in his absolute best on the big screen.
