Product Description :
Now a Major Motion Picture directed by Denzel Washington, and starring Denzel Washington and Viola Davis
Winner of the New York Drama Critic's and Tony Awards as well as the Pulitzer Prize, this sensational drama starred James Earl Jones in its original stage production.
Troy Maxson, a former star of the Negro baseball leagues, now works as a garbage man in 1957 Pittsburgh.
Excluded as a black player from the major leagues during his prime, Troy's bitterness takes its toll on his relationships with both his wife and son who now wants his chance to play. Troy sees in his son his own life being re-lived but the America of the sixties in a different land and one in which he finds himself a stranger, alienated from those closest to him.
In trying to save his son from his own life’s disappointments, Troy risks destroying everything he holds dear.
