00:00Your performance in The Piano Lesson, I loved it, but it didn't get nominated for
00:03an Oscar and people have been talking about it. Is that something that you
00:07think about? Not overly so. I'm excited to be here. I'm celebrating everywhere I
00:12am. The life of a film, the life of art, is more extensive than coming to a
00:19particular evening or particular close of a season. It has the possibilities of
00:25echoing, of creating a wake in its movement and that's what I celebrate
00:32about the work of August Wilson. It's been long-lasting and that's what I'll
00:38celebrate about this work that we have done together with our beautiful
00:41director Malcolm and just the brilliant cast of Samuel L. Jackson, Michael Potts,
00:49John David, Ray Fisher, Corey Hawkins, Skylar Elise Smith, myself and a brilliant
00:55crew who created a family and there's something beyond that.
