self-built fence

This movie is completely designed for the actors, and the actors' performances are extremely well-played. However, relative to the film, the language of the film is obviously so barren.
The stage of the movie is too obvious, too many lines, it seems rambling, and the emotions of the characters are always in a tense state.
Because there is no sense of rhythm in the film, the feeling of the "screen" of the film is too obvious, and the relaxation degree is lost. A few rare empty shots relieved the mood a little, but it was too deliberate.
This character, I can't say I like it, I only see a man who is selfish and has no sense of responsibility. Perhaps, I myself can't go back to Pittsburgh to experience the barriers that black people suffered. However, the female characters appear more layered and richer. Her forbearance, her atmosphere, and her motherhood are all understandable and recognized by most people.
There's no denying that Denzel Washington did a great job. Looks like I won the grand prize tonight. After all, the Oscars are more than just a movie award.

Fences quotes

  • Troy: Now you tell me who you ever heard of gonna pull their own teeth with a pair of rusty pliers?

    Bono: They're old folks. My granddaddy used to pull his teeth with pliers. They ain't had no dentists for colored folk back then.

    Troy: Well, get clean pliers. You understand? Clean pliers.

  • Rose: I took all my feelings, my wants and needs and dreams, and I buried them inside you. I planted a seed and watched and prayed over it. I planted myself inside you and waited to bloom! And it didn't take me no 18 years to realize the soil was hard and rocky, and it wasn't never gonna bloom!
