Those of us who have been watching Denzel Washington since the St. Elsewhere days can attest to this fact: he is a remarkable actor. His performances are powerful, intense, intelligent and extremely compelling. So he didn't bring home the Best Actor Oscar for his wonderful portrayals of Malcolm X and Hurricane Carter he got one instead for creating rogue cop Alonzo Harris in Training Day. And the honors, as well as the great acting, will keep coming. We expect nothing but great things from him and we know we won't be disappointed. We're going to honor him here with our glowing Destination Hollywood Tribute to Denzel Washington.
Denzel Washington has finished his work on The Book of Eli a "a post apocalyptic Western" We think this means that after the apocalypse we turn back into a nation of gunslingers. Is that what it means? We do know that Eli (Denzel Washington) is fighting to protect "a sacred book that holds the secrets to saving humankind" and that all the water on the earth has been poisoned In Hollywood the Apocalypse usually does involve water as a precious commodity maybe that's why everyone is always carrying a bottle. Until we know more what this movie is about we're going to make sure we have a few cases of water on hand. This one is scheduled for release in January 2010.
