Watch The Master Work: Check Out Denzel Washington Movies

By Denzel Smith

Portraying many different roles throughout his acting career, Denzel Washington movies find the well known actor taking on roles such as police officer, criminal and a combination of them both, but he never stops entertaining.

He was born Denzel Hayes Washington Jr. On December 28, 1954 in the city of Mount Vernon, NY. His mom worked as a beautician while his father was a preacher. He went to school for journalism, but caught the acting bug.

Appearing in a few minor roles for TV, he got his first big screen break acting alongside George Segal in the 1981 movie Carbon Copy. His true big break came, not from movies, but on television for the TV show, St Elsewhere. He was a regular member of the cast for six years, where he continued acting in movies such as The Mighty Quinn and For Queen and Country. These roles led to his next feature film in the movie Glory for which he won an Oscar, he would later win another Oscar for his portrayal of a bad cop in Training Day.

his main strength lies his biographical portrayals of real people. The films Remember the Titan, American Gangster, and The Hurricane are all reality based films.

Lots of Denzel movies feature him in a role of authority, playing high ranking officers and military roles. In both Virtuosity and Crimson Tide, he portrayed a lieutenant, but in his role for He Got Game, he was a bad father out of prison, trying to get over on his son the basketball player, in exchange for a shortened prison stint.

Box office results do not convey how brilliantly Denzel performs in a variety of feature films. Buy or rent Denzel Washington movies for a marathon and watch an excellent actor do his what he does best. - 40729
