Best Of: Colman Domingo / Writer Leïla Slimani

From WHYY in Philadelphia, this is Fresh Air Weekend. I'm Tanya Mosley in Los Angeles. Today, Coleman Domingo. He's nominated for two Emmy Awards this year for two very different roles in the Netflix comedy The Four Seasons and in the final season of HBO's Euphoria. Also, we hear from French Moroccan writer Layla Slimani. She writes from her dual perspective as biracial with members of her family representing the countries of the colonized and the colonizer. Plus rock critic Ken Tucker looks back at the soundtrack of the 1976 film Sparkle, sung by Aretha Franklin.

That's coming up on Fresh Air Weekend. This is Fresh Air Weekend. I'm Tanya Mosley. My guest today, Coleman Domingo, is nominated for two Emmy Awards this year. For two very different performances. In the Netflix comedy The Four Seasons, he plays Danny, one half of a long married couple who vacation each year with their oldest friends.

Danny is funny, vain, impeccably dressed, and now in his fifties. Confronting a question he thought he'd settle long ago. Whether he wants to become a father. And in the final season of HBO's Euphoria, Domingo returns as Ali. A man in long term recovery who has spent the series trying to help Rue, played by Zendaya, stay alive.
