- How are you feeling
today, mother?

00:00:02.466 --> 00:00:04.560 align:middle line:90%
- Proud.

00:00:04.560 --> 00:00:08.080 align:middle line:84%
Your father and I will talk
about this day all the time.

KEVIN POLOWY: Angela, we lost a
king this year with the passing

00:00:12.180 --> 00:00:13.470 align:middle line:90%
of Chadwick Boseman.

00:00:13.470 --> 00:00:16.379 align:middle line:84%
What can you say about Chad
in your experience working

00:00:16.379 --> 00:00:17.957 align:middle line:90%
with him on "Black Panther?"

00:00:17.957 --> 00:00:18.890 align:middle line:90%
ANGELA BASSETT: Oh, my gosh.

00:00:18.890 --> 00:00:22.650 align:middle line:84%
He gave the full measure of
himself, of his abilities,

00:00:22.650 --> 00:00:25.920 align:middle line:84%
of his talent, of his
heart, of his spirit,

00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:30.600 align:middle line:84%
of his deep, abiding,
limitless soul to that project.

00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:34.170 align:middle line:84%
But I imagine he did that
with whatever project he found

00:00:34.170 --> 00:00:37.020 align:middle line:84%
himself in, whatever
conversation

00:00:37.020 --> 00:00:41.100 align:middle line:84%
he found himself in, whatever
relationship he endeavored.

00:00:41.100 --> 00:00:45.240 align:middle line:84%
He was truly one of the most
special individuals create--

00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:49.470 align:middle line:84%
creations that I have
ever met in my life.

00:00:49.470 --> 00:00:54.120 align:middle line:84%
I love the outpouring of love
from the world in recognition

00:00:54.120 --> 00:00:55.650 align:middle line:90%
of him, but it's--

00:00:55.650 --> 00:00:57.930 align:middle line:90%
it's because he was--

00:00:57.930 --> 00:00:59.980 align:middle line:90%
his well was just so deep.

00:00:59.980 --> 00:01:04.290 align:middle line:84%
And he touched so many in such
a understated, beautiful way.

00:01:04.290 --> 00:01:05.770 align:middle line:90%
We're all capable of that.

00:01:05.770 --> 00:01:06.870 align:middle line:84%
KEVIN POLOWY:
Thank you for that.

00:01:06.870 --> 00:01:09.270 align:middle line:90%
I-- I can attest to it.

00:01:09.270 --> 00:01:11.700 align:middle line:84%
Chad was-- he was actually a
really good friend of mine,

00:01:11.700 --> 00:01:13.750 align:middle line:90%
so I--

00:01:13.750 --> 00:01:14.550 align:middle line:90%
yeah.

00:01:14.550 --> 00:01:16.920 align:middle line:84%
He was part of our
family, so I feel you.

00:01:16.920 --> 00:01:17.820 align:middle line:90%
Thank you for sharing that.

00:01:17.820 --> 00:01:19.710 align:middle line:84%
I really-- I really
appreciate that.
