You better watch how you talk to Uncle Jake...
Denzel is the EPITOME of "never underestimate a REAL nikka."Good look, came to post, this is my favorite Denzel interview.
fukk these Hollywood cacs and kikes.
The thing with Denzel...he's mostly accomplished all of this working with B-tier directors...the biggest guys don't have roles for black actors, and certainly not roles for dignified black actors like Denzel. Scorsese, Fincher, Anderson, Aronofsky, etc etc etc. Dude made half his movies with Tony Scott and shyt, and STILL came out on top. Black Excellence personified....
Great movie, and really feels unique in light of the kinds of movies blacks tend to star in. He got in on that LA Confidential vibe before LAC did....Favorite movie he starred in was Devil in a Blue Dress. Great story, era, acting, atmosphere. Mouse stole the scenes that he was in though. They shoulda made a series of sequels for Easy Rawlins, like they did Bond and Indiana Jones, but I don't think the movie made too much.
If you seen Devil in a Blue Dress and liked it, check out the book. It's based on a series of books by Walter Mosley featuring the Ezekial Rawlins character.
