A las dos últimas adaptaciones de obras de August Wilson ('Fences' y 'La madre del blues') les fue tan bien en la temporada de premios que era obligatorio estar muy pendiente de la premiere mundial de 'La lección de piano' en Telluride. La película producida por Denzel Washington, dirigida por su hijo Malcom y protagonizada por su otro hijo John David es un drama familiar que se desencadena cuando un hermano y una hermana se enfrentan por la herencia de un piano. Sobre el papel, esta podría haber sido la película que le valiera el Oscar a Samuel L. Jackson pero la realidad es que su papel no es tan lucido como cabía esperar (incluso hay quien apunta que el mejor secundario de la cinta es Ray Fisher). Quien sí gana enteros para estar en los Oscar es Danielle Deadwyler (sexta nominada hace dos años por 'Till'), aunque aún está por ver si será promocionada como protagonista o como secundaria.
The Piano Lesson blew my expectations out of the water and really moved me by the end. Malcolm Washington’s debut delivers the best big screen August Wilson adaptation. Great ensemble all around but the best in show were Deadwyler and Hawkins. pic.twitter.com/Y0r96oRew1

Malcolm Washington’s The Piano Lesson is a powerful family tale packed with strong performances especially by the forceful John David Washington and the phenomenal Danielle Deadwyler. They’d both be on my ballot for sure. #Telluride2024 pic.twitter.com/dbpPlKV06i

The Piano Lesson is impeccably acted, with Danielle Deadwyler and John David Washington shining. The supernatural elements did not land for me and it doesn’t fully shake a stagey feel, but your mileage may vary.@thepianolesson_ #ThePianoLesson #TellurideFilmFestival #Telluride pic.twitter.com/FgyADuPhf1

I think THE PIANO LESSON works best when it leans into the ghostly, supernatural and religious elements, less in a more rigid monologues. The work song sequence is masterful. Ray Fisher stands as the best performance for me, Danielle Deadwyler soars in the second half. pic.twitter.com/ahHA1LFAoA

THE PIANO LESSON is the most cinematic of the last three August Wilson adaptations Netflix has produced but also the most uneven. Balancing between a family drama rooted in legacy and a spiritual ghost story, I found the former far more compelling. John David Washington delivers… pic.twitter.com/AcArxz2xEn

THE PIANO LESSON is excellent! Washington’s film channels grief, culture and familial bond effortlessly throughout the runtime. Dannielle Deadwyler delivers one of the best lead performances you will see all year and Jackson is an absolute scene stealer! #TellurideFilmFestival pic.twitter.com/m7KJNxTaLZ

que pena por Samuel.
