The Bold Blues (Extracted Fro Piano Lessons)
August Wilson's Pulitzer Prize-winning play into a cinematic masterpiece in this richly women tapestry of a family divided by their heritage and their dreams for the future. Boy Willie(Charles S. Dutton) wants to buy a farm where his ancestors used to work as slaves, but first he must sell the family's most valuable possesion, abeautifully carved piano that hold a unique place in their history. He tries everything to persuade his sister, Berniece(Alfre Woodard) to let it go, but she refuses. This scene bring up the depth and strenght of the african american spirit. Charlie Dutton, Carl Gordon, Tommy Hollis, Lou Myers with an incredible amount of naturalness epitomize the black american trademark facing life controversies and dilemmas. Fine sense of intelligence, straight bullshitting attitude, and Excellent Bold Soul.
