role.
Remember the end?
After Hackman spent the previous 2 hours of the movie treating him like "Sambo," the Washington character actually shucks and jives and all but kisses Gene in the last reel.
Watch it again and see what you missed. The racism on Hackman's part is okay and probably not unusual for the time. Denzel's reaction, however, is indefensible.
