Re: Greatest acting performance of all time...

August 27, 2019 02:11PM
Only 1 scene comes to mind.... from the movie Glory. When Matthew Broderick (unjustly) orders the whipping of a very young Denzel Washington for having gone AOL (in search of shoes).... how Denzel glares at Broderick throughout the whipping. Giving everything he's got to keep a straight face as the lashes mount... little by little, and ever so slightly his expression begins to change as he begins to succumb to the torture... his expression changes in the form of tears welling up in his eyes, and the outer edges of his mouth starting to drop and tremble...., but his body holds fast to that wagon wheel..., and his eyes never leave Broderick who himself is becoming un-nerved my Denzel's piercing gaze....

Just a powerful, powerful scene to me....., and my first look at Denzel Washington.
