Denzel Washington is my favorite black actor, with superb acting skills that are unforgettable. I remember watching one of the first movies I saw was Fury Rescue, which made me think about the meaning of life.
So today we'll start with Fury Rescue, which isn't the most classic film starring Denzel Washington, but it's definitely the most enjoyable film, and he has almost all the elements that a cool film should include.
Cresser was a retired soldier who always felt that his life had lost its meaning after retirement, so he felt that every day was very painful, and he often dreamed of killing during his service.
Finally, one day, he tried to find a new life, went to Mexico to visit an old friend, and at the recommendation of an old friend, he went to a rich man's house to work as a bodyguard.
During his time as a bodyguard, he developed a deep friendship with the little girl Pinta, the object of his protection, and Pinta's concern for Cresse allowed him to regain the meaning of survival, and he felt the warmth of the world.
Cresser trains Pinta to swim and lets Pinta win the championship in the swimming competition, and the friendship between the two is once again enhanced.
However, one day, when Pinta went out to attend piano study, Pinta was hijacked by gangsters, and Cresser tried his best to protect him, but still failed. Pinta was taken away and Cresser fell to the ground with his wounds.
When Pinta's father went to get money to redeem Pinta, there was a problem with the money, the child was not redeemed, and the gang members said that there was a problem with the money and tore up the ticket.
Chrisse couldn't believe that the little girl he was protecting had died, so he began a frenzied revenge. This is the most explosive revenge movie I've ever seen, where one person singles out an entire underworld organization and single-handedly destroys the entire system.
Luckily, in the end, Crase discovers that Pinta is not dead, but the gang boss asks Crasse to trade his life for the little girl's life. Finally Pinta is saved, but Cresser staggers towards the area controlled by the gang.
The Douban score of this film is 8.1
The second film I recommend Denzel's "Training Day", which made Denzel Washington win the Academy Award for Best Actor, making him the second black actor to win the award.
In this film, Denzel plays a corrupt policeman who uses his power to control crime and rob criminals of their illegal gains.
He also wants to control his colleagues to join him, and when his power is finally exhausted, he can only swallow the bitter fruit he has planted.
The Douban score of this film is 8.0
The third film is "The Philadelphia Story" starring Denzel Washington and Tom Hanks, a film co-starring two Oscar winners, which must be a superior work, this movie is the highest rated film in Denzel Washington Douban, and also let Tom Hanks win the Oscar for the first time.
Andrew (Tom Hanks) and Miller (Denzel Washington) meet in court, both young and promising lawyers, each with their own masters.
However, the young Andrew was soon discovered by his boss for homosexuality and AIDS and fired for false reasons.
After being fired, Andrew looked around for a lawyer to get justice for him. When Andrew approached Miller, Miller initially rejected him.
Because Miller hates homosexuality and aids like a normal person, but when he sees Andrew being blinded by the administrator when he searches for "AIDS discrimination" in the library, and listens to his wife slowly and calmly say that their aunt and friends are also gay, he decides to accept Andrew's case.
It was also the first time I had watched a movie about homosexuality.
The Douban score of this film is as high as 8.7
The fourth film is recommended "Glory Years", which is a sports genre film based on real people and real events.
In 1971, a black middle school and a white middle school merged, and the school's football team had to be re-formed into a mixed team, the Helios.
The town, which has always been dominated by white people, welcomed these black people, which caused a lot of shock to the local residents.
Black coach Boone (Denzel Washington) became the team's bishop. White coach Bill (Will Patton) becomes Boone's assistant.
Bill went from hostility to gradually discovering what the two had in common except for rugby. Both have a strong sense of justice and honor, a strong work ethic, and are conscientious and meticulous in their work.
Boone went from being ostracized by everyone at the beginning to relying on his own beliefs, and with Bill's cooperation, he taught a group of grumpy and inattentive children into a dynamic, winning football team, and successfully pushed this long-defeated black-and-white mixed American football team to the championship.
The Douban score of this film is 8.6
The fifth film suggests that everyone watch "Hurricane", hurricane is not a wind, hurricane is a character.
A black hairy boy, Les (Vesrose Rennes Shannon Vicellous Rellous Reon Shannon), stumbles upon the autobiography of Boxer "Hurricane" Ruben Carter (Denzel Washington) written in prison in the old book market and becomes interested in his story.
Born into a poor family, Ruben was jealous of his infancy and formed a grudge with the local white policeman. Later, because of his excellent skills, he was famous in the boxing world and was nicknamed "Hurricane".
He then joined the Vietnam War as an honorary officer and met his future wife by chance at a ball. When life entered the happy orbit, a New Jersey bar murder completely ruined his good hopes.
Les corresponds with Ruben and learns that he has been wronged, so he convinces his friends to look for evidence together, hoping to uncover the truth and make him free again, but the evil forces of racial discrimination are secretly trying to make things difficult, intending to trap hurricanes in prison...
The Douban score of this film is 8.5
In addition to these movies, Denzel Washington has many movies that are very exciting, but because of the time reason, I will not introduce too much, if you are interested, you can search for Douban movies, search for Denzel Washington, find his films, watch one by one.
Of course, you have to have spare time, it is recommended that college friends take advantage of the time to squander, may wish to watch more movies. Looking back now, I still watched a lot of movies during college, which gave me more insight.
Okay, recently very busy, there is no time to write articles, can only write some movie recommendation articles, I hope you can also give yourself some time in the busy, thinking about the exploration of the meaning of life in the movie.
