This week we discuss the important, yet often overlooked, role of the supporting actors to not only the cast but the entirety of the film! From their ability to assist in furthering the plot or fill in the gaps that exist in the story. Supporting actors are the glue of the cast.
We also take a few moments ahead of the episode to acknowledge and pay our respects to the true life hero, Chadwick Boseman, who passed away this past Friday from a 4 year battle with colon cancer. #wakandaforever
