Few recent films have made such an ambiguous impression on audiences and critics alike. The film King Richard also belongs to this category.
This is a biographical drama focusing on Richard Williams and his two daughters, Venus and Serena. Before they became the world’s greatest tennis champions, they had a father by their side who did the impossible.
King Richard stars Richard Williams, but in the end Venus and Serena Williams shine
The film takes the story from the beginning, when the Williams family was still living in Compton, California in the 90’s. Richard Williams is an ambitious man who had the biggest dreams for his daughters. He put them on the tennis court early, wanting to teach them first to have fun and have a good time with it. And he did it consciously, as until then tennis was primarily a sport that the children of the rich and white were involved in.
But Williams never stopped believing in the talent of the girls. He even said that he has “two Michael Jordan” in his family. He taught the two girls at home the two girls and took care not to be pressured and strained in tennis tournaments from an early age. When she saw the same passion for the sport she dreamed of, then she knew that the time had come for the rest of the world to know them.
Many have criticized Richard Williams for his methods
Indeed, it seems that he had predetermined the future of his daughters, long before they were even able to think about it. He presented them with a predestined future for which they would have to work very hard to be rewarded accordingly. To this day, both Venus and Serena show genuine gratitude to their father. They believe that without him, they would not have all these opportunities today. But no one knows if they will continue to believe this as the years go by.
King Richard’s unknown past
For Williams, his marriage to Oracene Price, Venus and Serena’s mother, was his second. In his first marriage he had 5 daughters, whom, as it is said, he left at a very young age, to live with his second wife. Today, after a movie like this, one of his daughters made sure to share in the media that Richard Williams does not need all this deification that the movie gives him. He may have led one family to the top, but he had first left the other family in poverty and misery.
Nobody knows where the truth is. It may be somewhere in the middle. But this is a story that will concern us later. At the moment, we have in our hands a film that highlights the greatness of the soul of Venus and Serena Williams. In fact, they themselves participated in the creation of the film and had an excellent collaboration with Will Smith. As for him, it’s time to acknowledge his superiority in the dramatic roles he takes on each time.
