DAVID BIANCULLI, HOST: This is FRESH AIR. I m David Bianculli, professor of television studies at Rowan University, in for Terry Gross. Courtney B. Vance has been nominated for a guest actor Emmy for his role in HBO s Lovecraft Country, a supernatural horror series inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft. The period miniseries set in the past in the segregated Deep South was truly scary, but also managed to probe deeply into such concepts as racism, identity and self-worth. Here s a scene in which Vance, as George Freeman, finds himself invited to stay in a remote mansion along with his nephew and his nephew s girlfriend. It s a mansion that generates dreams and anxieties.
