CONFIRMATION
April 16, 2016  | By David Bianculli

HBO, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

TELEMOVIE PREMIERE: It’s been 25 years since Clarence Thomas, going through the confirmation process in his quest to become to next U.S. Supreme Court Justice, hit an unexpected, unprecedented roadblock when a law professor named Anita Hill, a former assistant to Thomas, testified against him, describing such matters of alleged misconduct as… well, sexual harassment of a very memorable kind. In this made-for-TV dramatization by HBO, Kerry Washington from Scandal stars as Anita Hill, and is an executive producer, while Clarence Thomas is played by Wendell Pierce from The Wire. For a full review, see Ed Bark's Uncle Barky's Bytes.
