it can be a tricky thing to bring a stage play to the big screen. theater is a very personal, often intimate experience, while cinema lends itself to bigger and more bombastic ways. often the most successful adaptations of plays are either musicals -- which can be as over the top as the hollywood films require -- or those that expand the production values and script to make for a bigger, bolder version of the original story. fences doesn't to that. the denzel washington-directed adaptation of august wilson's beloved stage production keeps things small in scope, thus allowing the power of the story to feel like it's bursting out of its modest setting. it's a smart decision that allows the cast to bring the most impact out of the script, which was written by wilson himself before his passing in 2005.
in many ways, fences is the epitome of an actor's film. set in 1950s pittsburgh, the movie doesn't often leave the house of washington and viola davis' troy and rose maxson. the setting stays the same even as the film moves from year to year, following this family as they try to deal with their struggles against poverty, racism, and troy's own personal demons. that lets us focus on the performers and their exquisite work in front of the camera. washington gives his most inspired performance in years as the emotionally-complex troy, and davis blows just about every performance this year out of the water. the supporting cast is stellar as well, while washington -- in his first directorial job since 2007 -- adeptly navigates wilson's themes. it's a film that stays with you for a while after it ends thanks to its often low key, charming nature that gets punctuated with moments of intensity or high drama. among 2016's pure dramas, fences stands very tall indeed.
