FENCES

Cert 12

Digital and Disc Monday Hollywood heavy hitter Denzel Washington gives a powerhouse performance as a baseball-loving binman in this compelling drama. Despite preaching responsibility, Troy is revealed as a hypocrite capable of monstrous behaviour towards those closest to him. Set in 1950s’ Pittsburgh, the story explores universal ideas of masculinity, marriage and fatherhood. Washington also directs. As Troy’s wife, a magnificently moving Viola Davis won the best supporting actress Oscar – one of four nominations here.
