In this intense scene from "Fences," Troy Maxson (Denzel Washington) lays down some hard truths to his son. He makes it clear that while he doesn't have to like him, it's his unwavering responsibility as a man to provide for his family—food, shelter, and clothes. This isn't about affection, but about fulfilling your obligations. It's a raw look at the weight of fatherhood and the difference between duty and desire.
