Denzel Washington

Two critics, five years apart, reach for the same family of words about Denzel Washington. Richard Kelly in 1999 finds his work in The Hurricane very controlled and counts the movement between Carter's warring selves persuasive; Stephen Dalton in 2004 calls a performance of his in another film pleasingly contained. The Berlinale looked the same way: it wrote the acting category to his name twice, in 1993 for Malcolm X and in 2000 for The Hurricane. One producing item also stands in the award records, a Spirit best film nomination of 2021; that item is a film category and lists him as producer. Among forty-three catalogued works he directed four. The Equalizer of 2014 draws the most votes, and across the archives in hand not a single item attaches to it.
