all of them as people seem so graceful. There is a peace about them even when I watch their interviews. Kelvin and Weruche have a hype expressive energy while Aaron and Jayme are like the calm expressive energy and it matches so well with their characters and translates in how how amazing they play the civil rights icons
What thoughtful, gifted actors! I am enjoying this amazing Genius series!
