Denzel Washington, the handsome Black American actor and director with natural acting abilities is twice an Academy Award winner besides winning several other awards. He is one of the hottest leading actor in Hollywood and exudes powerful sensuality on screen. Like Sidney Poitier, Denzel Washington too brought some credibility to black actors in the western world through his amazing performances and powerful screen presence. His versatility in portraying different roles in movies has won him rave reviews and critical acclaim even from movie critics and connoisseurs.
An institution by himself, this natural actor has been constantly refining his histrionic abilities with each movie. While on the sets, fellow-actors and unit members just watch him in awe trying to catch some tidbits here and there and learn a thing or two from him. The celebrated actor Tom Hanks, who worked with Washington on "Philadelphia" in 1993 had genuinely commented saying that he learned a lot about acting by watching Denzel than from anyone else. It was like "going to film school", he said.
Denzel through his astounding performances has reached to a stage where his mere presence in the movie is enough to send his awe-struck fans wild with delirium. As of 2006, Denzel Washington has won two Oscar awards and has been nominated five times.
