"Ma Rainey's Black Bottom," in which Chadwick Boseman performed for a final time prior to his death in August at age 43 , premieres on Friday on Netflix. Boseman plays ambitious trumpeter Levee in this film, based on the 1982 play of the same name by August Wilson. Boseman's peformance is both moving and haunting, especially with the hindsight that throughout production he was battling the colon cancer that would eventually take his life. Heath Ledger won a posthumous Academy Award for his performance as the Joker in "The Dark Knight." Paul Walker: No spoilers, but one of the saddest moments of "Furious 7" is the final shot of Paul Walker.
