      Funny thing about them is with Pelican Brief they were supposed to kiss and end up together but Denzel objected to this because he knew how his die hard black female audience would react and still growing in his career at that point he surely didn't wanna piss off his bread and butter. Denzel's a really smart brother.

      I watched this when it aired---20 years ago now, wow. Sidney's was honorary, but up until Denzel later won, Sidney was the sole African American Best Actor winner in 74 years. Halle and Denzel winning Best Actor and Best Actress was a huge moment; there was no social media then, but people talked and wrote about it for weeks after. But even Halle is sore that she remains to this day the only African American to ever win Best Actress.

We gotta stop worrying about impressing white people because at the end of the day Black people are multi faceted and layered and we come in all shapes and sizes, good and bad etc. there's no such thing as just "positive' black people like there is no such thing as just "negative" black people, we are both. We can be negative but I choose to be proud because such great talent were recognized in three black superstars.

    Denzel's acceptance speech was so clever. He was basically telling young people to aim high " At college, they asked each one of us what we wanted to be..."! He was humble by saying life taught him "...to be the best I could be...". He believes in loyalty and mentions his long term agent. He ends by saying win or lose he was "coming home " to his family. This is what young men need to aim for , be they actors, carpenters, doctors or teachers. I love Denzel.

      I watched it again recently and, all these years later, I felt like it was even better than it was back then. Sometimes when movies first come out and there’s all this fanfare or buzz going around about them, it can be difficult to gauge how good (or bad) a film actually is. But nearly two decades later, it’s much easier to just watch it and appreciate it for what it really is, and that’s a damn good movie. Denzel and Ethan both were outstanding (and I don’t even like Ethan Hawke) and I’m so glad I watched it again.
