You have to stay true to yourself and stand firm instead of going with the wind or flow, most people forget were they came from or who was there for them when they had nothing. When people start talking in their ear, they start to change to conform and by the time they realize it, their life is in shambles. And stay of social media too.

@edg456 Год назад

If you haven't already, check out the Making of Malcolm X here on RU-vid. Denzel spent a year preparing for the role before they even started filming. He practiced Islam and learned Arabic so he could read the Quran in its original language. Denzel as Malcolm was a textbook case of method acting (and that's probably an understatement). That's what made his performance so powerful. He understood the assignment and nailed it.

I have long been a Denzel fan. (NOT a Hollywood fan). They said Denzel carried the spirit of Malcolm to the awards, and perhaps longer. I blame education and media for keeping the magic and magnetism of Malcolm X from us. I have watched this movie and read about Malcolm X, his amazing widow, daughters since Covid. We were never taught about him in school. About MLK - yes. Not Malcolm X.

@allflying3 2 года назад

Which is kinda funny. Most of the world know who Malcolm X was, but they don't know who MLK was. While MLK told his dream on us who cannot sleep under oppression, Malcolm X's words rang so strongly that it made us wide awake. He made us aware who our enemies are and how can we fix our condition ourselves.

Fantastic movie! A true education. Denzel Washington was brilliant with one of his very best performances. He delivered! Every student should be required to read this book and after discussing the book thoroughly, to watch the movie. I believe this is an ‘Opportunity’ to reach through all the lies and show school aged children this movie along with their peer group. Open their minds while they are still eager to learn. Children are the future and without the truth they are doomed to repeat it all. Teachers use every tool they have available to teach their students. Children will embrace this movie far faster than anyone could possibly try to explain what happened & why it happened. This is a ‘must see movie’! Denzel, as always, portrayed Malcom X with Respect & Honor. May God Bless All Who Worked on This Important Story! Thank you Mr Washington.

Both fictional characters.
