Summary Denzel Washington is a two-time Academy Award-winning actor, but a snub of one of his '90s films would have made him a two-time Oscar winner much earlier. Renowned for his impeccable work ethic and his ability to elevate any movie he's in with his mere presence alone, Denzel Washington is high-grossing box office gold and one of the most bankable actors at the global box office.

Spike Lee's Malcolm X and Martin Brest's Scent of a Woman are two incredible films from 1992 that, while featuring two completely different leads, explore similar themes through the lens of their dynamic protagonists. Whereas Scent of a Woman emphasized the value of mentorship and integrity between a military colonel and a university student, Malcolm X demonstrated similar values as they pertain to the enlightenment and advancement of Black people and African American culture.

Although X's trip to Mecca changed his life and his perspective on race, racism, and race relations in America, his well-documented scathing messages against various European communities and his advocacy of the Second Amendment perpetually cast a negative light on the man and his legacy.
