There are movie stars… and then there’s Denzel Washington.
In this episode of What the Film, Vishaal and Kevin take on an impossible task: building a Mount Rushmore of Denzel Washington’s filmography.
From the moment we first saw him on screen to the performances that defined his career, we get into what makes Denzel one of the most respected and rewatchable actors of all time.
We talk about:
- Our earliest memories of watching Denzel
- The performances that make his Mount Rushmore
- His legacy as both an actor and a movie star
- Why he continues to resonate across generations
Four films. One legend. A lot of debate.
Listen now and tell us: what makes your Denzel Mount Rushmore?
