JDW was a massive surprise for me. Definitely his best performance since BlacKkKlansman.

They make me proud and I’m not even related to them. The way they explained this scene was beyond artistic and visionary. They speak like modern day Renaissance men. Great job Mr. and Mrs. Washington for raising your kids wonderfully. I’m excited to see the art and storytelling created in this film. ❤❤❤
