Talk to Me Trailer

Video Title :	Talk to Me Trailer
Description :	Academy Award nominee Don Cheadle portrays the one and only Ralph Waldo "Petey" Greene Jr.; Petey's story is funny, dramatic, inspiring -- and real. In the mid-to-late 1960s, in Washington, D.C., vibrant soul music and exploding social consciousness were combining to unique and powerful effect. It was the place and time for Petey to fully express himself -- sometimes to outrageous effect -- and "tell it like it is." With the support of his irrepressible and tempestuous girlfriend Vernell (Taraji P. Henson), the newly minted ex-con talks his way into an on-air radio gig. He forges a friendship and a partnership with fellow prison inmate Milo's (Mike Epps) brother Dewey Hughes (double Golden Globe Award nominee Chiwetel Ejiofor). From the first wild morning on the air, Petey relies on the more straight-laced Dewey to run interference at WOL-AM, where Dewey is the program director. At the station, Petey becomes an iconic radio personality, surpassing even the established popularity of his fellow disc jockeys, Nighthawk (Cedric The Entertainer) and Sunny Jim (Vondie Curtis Hall). Combining biting humor with social commentary, Petey openly courts controversy for station owner E.G. Sonderling (Emmy Award winner Martin Sheen). Petey was determined to make not just himself but his community heard during an exciting and turbulent period in American history. As Petey's voice, humor, and spirit surge across the airwaves with the vitality of the era, listeners tune in to hear not only incredible music but also a man speaking directly to them about race and power in America like few people ever have. Through the years, Petey's "The truth just is" style --- on -- and off-air -- would redefine both Petey and Dewey, and empower each to become the man he would most like to be.

fucking awesome!

Very good movie; one of my personal favorites.

LOVE this movie.. everythime I see this movie.. I still LOVE it..

Awesome movie! Great story, great actors, and good flow. Cheadle is ballin'. I started watchin this on HBO one night at 2AM and I had to finish it!

don cheadle is an amazing actor.

This was a treat to see some of the strongest actors around who happen to be black on-screen together. I'm so glad Taraji P. Henson has a nice bit in this role. I knew ever since Baby Boy- then verified in HustleFlow-thenSmokin' Aces -this woman needs more roles on the big screen! Actually she's doing some movie that Brad Pitt is headlining.She's only going to get better! Don Cheadle has always been the man since Devil in a Blue Dress. Chiwetel Ejiofor -see the film Dirty Pretty Things!

props to Chiwetel Ejiofor for his his American accent. I think he's so convincing - but sounds a lot like Denzel sometimes.

I LOVE THIS MOVIE!

This is one of those movies that is really worth it. Truly touching.

WAKE UP GODDAMMIT!!
