    Young Washington

    For our first On Screen episode hosts Luke and Caleb discuss director Jon Erwin’s YOUNG WASHINGTON from Angel Studios out in theaters just in time for the 4th of July holiday. The production value for this film is off the charts for such an up-and-coming studio. The film features a breakout performance from actor William Franklyn-Miller who turns in an outstanding portrayal of young George Washington. Supporting Franklyn-Miller are performances from the incomparable Kelsey Grammer and the always locked-in Andy Serkis. Reel Reads recommends everyone head to the theaters for this film.
