Summary

For this week's third podcast review, I am joined by Josh Parham, Dan Bayer & guest Brandon Lewis. Today, we are reviewing the newest film from director George C. Wolfe, "Rustin," starring Colman Domingo, Chris Rock, Jeffrey Wright & Audra McDonald. Based on the life of civil rights activist Bayard Rustin, this biopic has been a long time coming and has finally given Colman Domingo a leading role worthy of his many talents. What did we think of the performance from Domingo, the supporting cast ensemble, the writing, and the direction from George C. Wolfe? Tune in as we discuss these talking points, the film's awards potential, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...
