My #cicely story. My Mom took me to see this movie #bustinloose with some guy named #richardpryor when I was a kid. He was really funny, but the woman who played the teacher affected me the most. After I saw that movie I wanted to be an actress. When I saw the water fountain scene in the TV movie which earned her an emmy award in the seventies, #theautobiographyofmissjanepittman I was astounded..It's a shame Hollywood didn't give her her a bouquet flowers until the last decade or so. Seeing her play @violadavis mother in #howtogetawaywithmurder was EVERYTHING. I even memorized the title of first episode she appeared in: Mama's Here written by @swptatopie who did one helluva job! To see Cicely and Viola together knowing one had paved the way for the other was too exciting to properly describe!!! Thank you @shondarhimes !! I made sure to see her onstage as soon as I found out about #atriptobountiful and got on a plane to see her on Broadway AND in L A. And flew 3000 miles again to see her co-star with my other #acting inspiration #jamesearljones in Gin Game. They were MAGIC together!!! She absolutely exuded JOY onstage!! And like her I will perform onstage into my golden years. Well done Cicely. #standingovation from all of us. Bravo!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 https://www.instagram.com/p/CKnT7afpleY/?igshid=1qx1wr39o0uml

This man was first person that inspired me to act. He is now 89 years young...I never met him but saw him onstage with my other inspiration #cicelytyson (who I first saw in #bustinloose) a few years ago. They had sooo much fun together. I also made sure the poem I wrote about him in high school got to his "people". Thank you #jamesearljones for your detailed performances and being a true artist. #claudine is my other fave...And don't laugh but I still have videotapes of his short lived tv show #gabrielsfire I still remember the way he ate a hotdog for the first time in years in the pilot episode. (He played an ex-con) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7fTxoJJoIR/?igshid=azuo2bj0git7

I want to be #cicely when I grow up!! Her recognition is looong looong overdue! I discovered her in #bustinloose and was blown away by #missjanepittman at the water fountain.. As an adult have experienced her onstage three times! @officialhtgawm is the icing!!! She got her #tony and deserves her #emmy Regardless she is a fabulous #nanogenarian whose life and work will inspire me forever! #repost @hollywoodsblackrenaissance

😂 Brother Edwin Deleon and I returning from Los Angeles Hollywood. We were just beginning our young paths in life... oh boy what a journey I must say! Little did we both know what was to come... but it’s all a part of life right? Amazing times!!! Trivia... the original name of the movie was “Family Dream” then it became “Bustin’ Loose”. 🎥 #bustinloose #angelramirezjr #aramifilms #aramitv #elboydelbarrio #thebarrioboyzz #FamilyDream
