Director: Reinaldo Marcus Green Release Date: November 19, 2021 I watched this movie on the plane when I was going to Jordan. Will Smith won an Oscar for best actor in this movie, so I really focused on his performance. I think his acting was phenomenal. I feel like the most difficult roles is when you have to act like somebody else. You have to understand and know their mannerisms and accents. I don’t typically enjoy sports movies, but I appreciate how they focused on Richard’s motivation for his daughters. I felt like it was the perfect balance of the Williams’ upbringing and tennis playing. Robert Elswit, cinematographer, used some really crucial techniques to feel the stress of living in Compton and dropping everything to move to Florida. For example, after Brandie and Richard fought in the kitchen, Richard walked out. However, the camera stays in the kitchen. I thought that was really powerful since he comes back later. I really liked this movie.
