Today, Yahoo Movies has posted an exclusive behind the scenes featurette from the Academy Award nominated film, FENCES starring Denzel Washington. The clip, taken from the film's upcoming digital and Blu-ray home video releases, showcases Washington's expertise in both directing and acting in the film. Actress Viola Davis chimes in on how Washington's key to success was that he had already played his character, Troy Maxon in the 2010 Broadway revival of the play.
