While a lot of films have taken to filming scenes on sets or with the use of extensive CGI, Denzel Washington's movie, Fences was filmed using locations in Pittsburgh as the foundation for this character and dialogue-driven drama. Based on the play by the same name, Fences follows Troy Maxon, played by Denzel Washington, and his family troubles set in the 1950s. Bitter after not being able to follow in his dreams of being a professional baseball player, when the chance for his son to play college football appears, Troy ruins this opportunity.
