Kelsi and Trey dive into the chaotic world of Training Day, the 2001 crime thriller that earned Denzel Washington his only Best Actor Academy Award. They explore Washington's portrayal of Detective Alonzo Harris, a cartoonish villain elevated by Washington's charisma and command. We also explore Washington's career, highlighting his versatility across his very-different eras, examining how Training Day fits into his filmography. While Training Day is a propulsive movie, and Washington is undeniably compelling, we also touch on why this film has a complicated legacy for a variety of reasons.
