My favorite performance is Malcolm X but my fav film is Devil in a Blue Dress. How can you argue with the Washington/Cheadle combo?

Malcom X and Glory are pretty darn close, but I'm gonna give the nod to X . . .

Crimson Tide is a close second after Malcom X. He BECAME Malcom in that movie.

Glory, even though it isn't a lead role for Denzel.

If I had to pick a film with him as the lead(or leads) it would be Crimson Tide.

X - Not only his best but one of the greatest films of all time. It got robbed at the Oscars.

I've yet to see Glory. Yep, sad.

I pick is Philly, followed closely by Man on Fire.
