It’s hailed as one of Oprah Winfrey’s best performances.
The well-respected talk show host, and actress, stars in the drama The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks from the adaptation of Rebecca Skloot’s critically best-selling, non-fiction book of the same title.
The story is told through the eyes of Henrietta Lack’s daughter, Deborah Lacks, in the search to learn about the mother she never knew, and the understanding of unauthorized harvesting of Lack’s cancerous cells in 1951 led to unprecedented medical breakthroughs, changing countless lives and the face of medicine forever.
Rose Byrne also stars in the film as the investing journalist Rebecca Skloot.
