Broadly Speaking #12: ’The Woman King’ and Viola Davis’ Impending Oscar

We interrupt our current series, They Called Them Crazy, to bring you an urgent notice to drop whatever you are doing and get your butts to the movie theatre to see THE WOMAN KING!! Chloe joins Sara to discuss the newly released film directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood and starring Viola Davis, Lashana Lynch, Thuso Mbedu, and John Boyega.

In addition to reviewing Prince-Bythewood's stellar direction and beautiful filmmaking, Viola Davis' breathtaking performance, and the rest of the talented cast and crew involved, this spoiler-free episode (we promise) looks at the semi-historic roots of the storyline and the qualities of the film and story that make it stand out as a shining beacon amongst other female-centric and afrocentric hollywood flicks.
