"There's more to life than just making money. It's integrity, there's what you stand for. It's what you actually believe in."

Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal were notably snubbed in this year's Tony nominations, while newcomers George Clooney and Nicole Scherzinger received their first nominations.

The three teams of three were given a clue about an Oscar winner, but they completely missed the mark, demonstrating how blind spots can occur in pop culture knowledge.

Denzel Washington earned an Oscar nomination portraying anti-apartheid activist Steve Biko, yet the film overly focuses on the white journalist's perspective, overshadowing the intended message.

"At the Oscars, they called Kevin Spacey's name for 'American Beauty.' I have a memory of turning around and looking at him, and nobody was standing but the people around him. And everyone else was looking at me."

Denzel Washington revealed that his preparation for the flogging scene in "Glory" involved spiritually connecting with the experiences of enslaved people. He stated, "Basically what I did was, got on my knees and sort of communicated with the spirits of those who had been enslaved - who had been whipped. And when I came out, I was in charge." This profound approach allowed him to embody his character, preparing him mentally for the emotional weight of the scene.

"Histories are passed as we keep doing things together . . . through struggle, through joy, through lovemaking, through challenge," Deadwyler explained to The New Yorker.

Denzel Washington's encounter with King Charles III at the 'Gladiator II' premiere was marked by nervousness and humor, showcasing the traditional greetings at royal events.
