@@alliwantismoneyy I recall when he was talking about the movie Flight, the interviewer said something about him playing someone and pretending to be drunk, and Washington said, no, no, he is a drunk, pretending he's sober.
When you are protecting a client where else are you going to be? When the client gets up to go somewhere do you think you ask: "Would you like me to come with you?" Course not! You have one job and that is to ALWAYS BE COVERING YOUR CLIENT. End of story. FYI.........Used to be a body guard for some high profile people. Never once asked: "should I come with you?"
Agreed! The only one that stands out to me a little bit more is the scene from Sicario when Benicio Del Toro shot the Cartel’s leaders kids and wife in front of him before killing him last. That’s was the most cold blooded thing I’ve ever seen.
In real life most peoples last words are “you really gonna kill me?” So this fits perfectly, people assume you will react the way they want you to and then boom lights out forever. Better luck in the next life.
This is Pure Savage. Not only Frank puts a Bullet in his head, but does it in Public knowing that no one will tell. Baddest part is he goes back to the Restaurant to finish his breakfast a block away.
Tango early in the movie kept disrespecting Frank. Tango believed after Bumpy Johnson died that he was going to run Harlem. Frank had to show him who was in charge here. It was cold and calculated. He knew exactly what he was doing.
True but after Bumpy died, Tango believed he could tax dealers 20% that operated in the neighborhood, including Frank. In their interaction where Frank was having coffee, Frank dismissed all that because Tango didn’t have the authority to do so. When redtop gave Tango the package, he never intended on paying Frank because he was trying to one up Frank for the tax ordeal.
@ that or Frank Lucas by marc streitenfeld, the trumpet matches more on this but caskets has a good long intro like the one in the movie. I wonder if they laced them together
I remember watching this movie in the theater and was enjoying it. But when this scene played out, i recall the theater going "woah" because I don't think everyone was ready for something like that. LOL
That is probably Ernie from Scarface. Tony ordered Manny to shoot Frank Lopez, while he stood there. Then he offered Ernie a job and he took it. Mfer was trembling after they left drinking Jack Daniels out the bottle. He did redeem himself and went out like a G at the end.
The fact that he DID SHOOT HIM in broad daylight, in front of everybody, shows you how POWERFUL and FEARED he was in that neighborhood. He KNEW no one would even DARE TURN HIM INTO the police! This is one of the COLDEST gangster scenes I have ever seen - EVER!😮 ( And he DID NOT even take the money!)
Interesting fact, Idris Elba was so surprised by the discharge from the gun (there was no blank so he was safe but still surprised) he fell backwards and yelled out, "I've been shot!"
Denzel Washington is such a magnetic actor. He has every quality that you look for in a movie star. And, he can flat out act. I remember the late Gene Siskel nominated him for 007. I agree.
Frank took the pains to empty the granulated sugar in the jar into a plate on the table because he didn't want to waste it. He very well could have tossed the sugar into the street as he stepped out of the diner, yet he had no second thoughts about 'wasting' Tango's life. Bro, that's cold as dry ice. 😄
The character he plays is quite much of a gentleman. In the beginning of the movie, that man he killed poured his drink on the table and didn't clean, so he politely did it and put the glass on a coater in a act of pure class.
The best thing about this scene is not how Denzel killed Idris Elba. But the way he walked over to him and shot him in the head in broad daylight, and returned to his brothers and cousins like he had gone only for a piss...is true Gangsta OG Style!
You realize his power knowing NOBODY on that street was going to snitch on him. Most ppl understood the cops were bought and paid for, so going to the cops would be blowing out your own brains once Frank finds out
"Honesty, integrity, and hard work" would be the last words you'd ever use to describe Frank Lucas. But you believe Denzel Washington's character as he says those lines... Just unbelievable stuff. Washington's *presence* in every film he does. You hang on his every word.
The stark contrast of the back to back scenes. The extreme of the Criminal shooting someone in the head in broad daylight while talking to his students. And the Cop confirming the story to his students of giving back a million dollars in Cash.
@@LaundroMATT_ Not angry at all numbnuts Just an observation. Amusing that someone repeats what we JUST watched. Also, waaaay relaxed, as I dont get all that worked up as you do about a reply
@@Moadar it's more like bad script decisions that he has made. You see Elba is more like a tough guy actor four comic book roles. I can actually see him as a General zod in a Superman movie but not a James Bond himself.
@@katherinejohnson3906 Shia was about as big as you could get from 2005-2010. Transformers were THE action movies of that timeframe and he also starred in Eagle Eye. He was a big actor, he just didn't last as long as people like Denzel did.
@Candy Baby49 The Dark Tower movie was a fucking flop before they even released it and you can't blame Idris Elba for that lol.... They tried to make a 1 off movie from a 7 book series. As soon as a multi book series is is given way towards a live action movie Its doomed to fail before its conceived.
😂😂😂 every lesson from the teacher must be accompanied a visual demonstration in order to make the lesson apprehensable and cannot be the better way than I found in this video 😂😂😂
What's interesting is that the real Frank Lucas was nothing like his portrayal in this movie....in fact Frank's personality was actually similar to the way they portrayed Nicky Barnes...and Nicky was more like Denzel's character in real life. Old timers that knew both men have stated this....it's like Nicky and Frank switched their personas for this movie
Hi everyone! What grade (out of 10) would you give this video?

Denzel Washington is a chameleon. He doesn't just play a part. He becomes it. One of the greatest actors of all time.
I would say greatest(in my opinion)
@@alliwantismoneyy I recall when he was talking about the movie Flight, the interviewer said something about him playing someone and pretending to be drunk, and Washington said, no, no, he is a drunk, pretending he's sober.
You like that huh?
Name a bad Denzel movie, I dare you! It doesn’t exist!

This reminds me of that boondocks episode where the basketball player got shot in front of a crowd of people and they left a note, nobody saw nothing.
My favorite part is how Frank walks out and the body guard is right behind him without a word spoken.

The way he comes back inside the diner and sits down. Knowing fully well that there isn't a soul in Harlem that will tell on him to the police

He also KILLED that walk…
That's just how Denzel walks. SMOOTH!!!
YES HE DID 🙏🙏🙏
I want you to name and actor who has a walk that Commands respect?
His walk is EPIC
that is Denzel’s natural walk and you will see it in every movie he is in.
All he had to do was pay him 🤣🤣🤣
Tango early in the movie kept disrespecting Frank.
Tango believed after Bumpy Johnson died that he was going to run Harlem. Frank had to show him who was in charge here.
It was cold and calculated. He knew exactly what he was doing.
I know right. It wasn't like all he had to do was follow a damn train.

Poor Fool.
It's krazy how Denzel really killed Idris in this scene to make it more authentic
His identical twin, Ibris, has really been putting in the work to fill the gap.
Hahahahahahah. Today's world pepowill believe that hahahah

That's the shortest scene Idris ever played in the movie 😂 ✌️
Wrong. You need to rewatch Infinity Wars to time it. He has less time on the screen. Lol.
@@thomasbrown3356 oh OK I didn't see that.. Will look into it... Respect ✌️

Idris was not a star actor at this time. He was just another actor.
@@NolimitatioNYC he actually was lol
I remember watching this movie in the theater and was enjoying it. But when this scene played out, i recall the theater going "woah" because I don't think everyone was ready for something like that. LOL
Just made that up.
Tango’s bodyguard is the most useless bodyguard ever
If Tango shorted his boss what makes you think he wasn’t shorting his bodyguard?
That is probably Ernie from Scarface. Tony ordered Manny to shoot Frank Lopez, while he stood there. Then he offered Ernie a job and he took it. Mfer was trembling after they left drinking Jack Daniels out the bottle. He did redeem himself and went out like a G at the end.
Maybe he just knows not to mess with Frank.
Tango body guard made a business an Life decision lol . I bet tango was an a-hole to him as well lol .
What's he gonna do?
The fact that he DID SHOOT HIM in broad daylight, in front of everybody, shows you how POWERFUL and FEARED he was in that neighborhood.
He KNEW no one would even DARE TURN HIM INTO the police! This is one of the COLDEST gangster scenes I have ever seen - EVER!😮
( And he DID NOT even take the money!)
Only in the movies
Ever!!
And he leaves the gun on his body, cold af
he also had the police in that district in his pocket also, and they feared him as well
Interesting fact, Idris Elba was so surprised by the discharge from the gun (there was no blank so he was safe but still surprised) he fell backwards and yelled out, "I've been shot!"
Denzel Washington is such a magnetic actor. He has every quality that you look for in a movie star. And, he can flat out act. I remember the late Gene Siskel nominated him for 007. I agree.
I could see him doing 007...
The look on his face right before he pulls the trigger is pure art. Cold, ruthless, but yet steeped in honor and loyalty. A code that you don’t break.
What?
There will never be another Denzel Washington. Cold as ice baby! 🥶 🥶 🥶!!!
2:17 the wu tang clan are so good that they had fans before they even existed
The easiest bread Idris Elba ever made lol
You know after watching this scene, you're gonna watch this movie again
I just said that I'm about to go right now turn this movie on.. How do you know that?😂😂
Haven’t seen it yet and won’t watch it
Frank took the pains to empty the granulated sugar in the jar into a plate on the table because he didn't want to waste it.
He very well could have tossed the sugar into the street as he stepped out of the diner, yet he had no second thoughts about 'wasting' Tango's life.
Bro, that's cold as dry ice. 😄
Nice catch 😊
You do realize that was probably written in the script?
Nope. The pouring of the sugar is a silent signal to his fellow gangsters. He's saying, "Shit's about to go down. Keep an eye open."
The character he plays is quite much of a gentleman. In the beginning of the movie, that man he killed poured his drink on the table and didn't clean, so he politely did it and put the glass on a coater in a act of pure class.
@@twittertwice He didn't say Denzel choose to do it, the character Frank did it. Of course it was in the script.
Denzel Washington is one of my favourite actors of all time.
I like how after he shot Idris his brothers began scooting their chairs up to the table. Denzel comes back and says where was I? Classic.
That's how you doin' biz in oll good Africa. It's Somali around them, isn't it? Pure commercial of the BLM lifestyle
one of the greatest scenes of all time.
Meanwhile in the afterlife
Idris Elba: damm he was serious about that
"Everybody plays the tough guy till shit pops off"
1:30 at least he was nice enough to leave him some money to pay the ferryman.
The way he just comes back and sits at the table so casual man...denzel was ICE COLD in this movie dude
The best thing about this scene is not how Denzel killed Idris Elba. But the way he walked over to him and shot him in the head in broad daylight, and returned to his brothers and cousins like he had gone only for a piss...is true Gangsta OG Style!

Just unbelievable stuff. Washington's *presence* in every film he does. You hang on his every word.
typical sociopath lol
To be fair, if dude had paid like he'd agreed to, he'd probably still be breathing. Frank was just enforcing integrity.
I'm sure Lucas worked hard.
Wtf are you talkin about …. So because he was a drug dealer he didn’t work hard?
White people lol
@@periechontology He didn't. His businnes was get rich quick scheme. So coke. In those days it was like crypto for kids now.
Most badass scene in all movie history. Period. damn!
1:35 the way that bodyguard just turns around and starts searching for another job..😂
If Denzel would have been a waiter, he would have told his customers to add 20%
Just when we thought Idris Elba was a top actor Denzel kills of his character quick!
1:03 the “OHhhhhH” as he see the gun being pulled will always get me
Now that's how a teacher gets kids to pay attention

This is the clip that needs to be shared when someone says Idris is a better actor than DW.
Kidding, I adore Idris.
Yes...we all do. But he's no Denzel...and this movie proves it, especially this particular scene.
Nobody has ever said that lol!
When he comes back and sits down and says what was I saying that’s priceless !!!!!
I seen a lot of gangster movies in my day. This scene is by far one the most gangster scene I every seen!

i can do that too
1:35 Bodyguard: Welp, I guess I'll just take the rest of the day off then! lol
Pretty sure he took that money from the jar, since that was his last pay lol
The true meaning of action speaks louder than words
I love how the writers showed Denzel’s character shooting Idris character, to represent how he wanted him dead. Just, brilliant.
I never noticed how he pours the sugar out of the glass right on to the plate to not make a mess. Small detail but profound.
Denzel's scariest movie scene EVER!!
Everyone believes Idris Elba wants to be the first black James Bond more then anyone. But this is living proof Denzil Washington wants it more.
I’ll never understand how Idria Elba never became a huge star. It’s truly unfair. Just for the “Wire” he should have earned several Emmy awards.
Idk about awards but he’s a huge star

There are probably more movies where Denzel should have won a best actor Oscar than not.
I agree. He definitely should have won an Oscar for this movie and for Malcolm X.
I've always loved how my man had a WHOLE BODYGUARD who not only didn't do a damn thing but casually walked away when it was done!😅😅😅😅
How is Denzel Washington not a ten time Oscar winner?
Because he has not publicly punched Chris Rock 10 times :D
At that moment his brothers were like I’m sorry for anything I ever did to you as a child!😅😅
Always crazy to me when ppl say “what are you gonna do, shoot me?” right before they get shot.
How his facial expression never changed is what always gets me..like killing tango was nothing 🥶
business integrity at its finest, u settle ur debts even with the dead
