There are so many! But, my favorite would have to be his portrayal of ‘John Q’.
Denzel in Training Day- he hadn’t done a role like that, and excelled at it.
Training Day is by far the best because it was his first time playing the bad guy. King Kong had nothing on him.
He was great as Denzel Washington Detective Alonzo Harris in Training Day.
Man on Fire is my favorite!
Training Day! He won the Oscar for Best Actor & he got to play a villian!
I have to go with John Q! Such an amazing and touching performance.He made me, a grown man cry.Great film!
what about the siege? when he was talkign and he nose bled…powerful stuff…very underrated
I would have to say his portrayal of Coach Herman Boone in Remember the Titans.
easy rawlins from Devil in a Blue Dress.
how about whats his name from Man on Fire?
Denzel as Bleek Gilliam in MO’ Betta Blues
Philadelphia is my choice. Mr. Washington was so perfect in how he acted toward a homosexual male in that time frame. His fear and is doctor suggesting that he might be Gay for asking all his questions about AIDS just blew me away! That he grows to like Andrew and defend him court just shows how much compassion Denzel Washington can show in face emotionally it was very moving. That he overcomes his fear and bigotry of homosexuals in the movie is an awesome performance and probably changed attitudes and lives after seeing it. I thought Denzel Washington should have gotten an Oscar for that alone. That is one handsome man too! FYI yes I am a woman.
Man On Fire was a Great MOVIE!!
denzel is great in all of his movies but malcolm x is one he should have won an oscar for.
