December 2020 is a banner month for the career of late playwright August Wilson. Within two weeks, Netflix has released two new films spotlighting Wilson's career and legacy:
Giving Voice, a documentary by James D. Stern and Fernando Villena, about the history and importance of the August Wilson Monologue Competition, and
Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, George C. Wolfe and Ruben Santiago-Hudson's screen adaptation of Wilson's first Broadway play, with a jaw-dropping cast led by Viola Davis and Chadwick Boseman.
In his own humble way, Wilson, who died of liver cancer at 60 in 2005, would have reveled in this nationwide effort to spotlight his work, according his widow and literary executor, Constanza Romero. Here, the Tony-nominated costume designer discusses the films, her late husband's work, and their importance.
