Late to the session, the fearless, fiery Ma engages in a battle of wills with her white manager and producer over control of her music. As the band waits in the studio\u2019s claustrophobic rehearsal room, ambitious cornet player Levee (Chadwick Boseman) \u2014 who has an eye for Ma\u2019s girlfriend and is determined to stake his own claim on the music industry \u2014 spurs his fellow musicians into an eruption of stories revealing truths that will forever change the course of their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adapted from two-time Pulitzer Prize winner August Wilson\u2019s play, MA RAINEY&#8217;S BLACK BOTTOM celebrates the transformative power of the blues and the artists who refuse to let society\u2019s prejudices dictate their worth. Directed by George C. Wolfe and adapted for the screen by Ruben Santiago-Hudson, the film is produced by Fences Oscar\u00ae nominees Denzel Washington and Todd Black. Colman Domingo, Glynn Turman, Michael Potts, Taylour Paige, Dusan Brown, Jeremy Shamos and Jonny Coyne co-star alongside Grammy\u00ae winner Branford Marsalis\u2019 score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/netflix.com\/maraineysblackbottom\" target=\"_blank\">netflix.com\/maraineysblackbottom<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Directed by: George C.
