Synopsis

NOMINATED FOR: Best Male Lead

Don Cheadle portrays the one and only Ralph Waldo "Petey" Green, Jr. in TALK TO ME, directed by Kasi Lemmons (Eve's Bayou) from screenplay by Michael Genet and Rick Famuyiwa. Petey's story is funny, dramatic, inspiring - and real. In the mid-to-late 1960s, in Washington, DC, the newly minted ex-con talks his way into an on-air radio gig. He forges a friendship and a partnership with Dewey Hughes (Chiwetel Ejiofor) that will redefine and empower both men.
