Denzel Washington
Nailing a stare that is confused, focused, sad and mad all at once.
50 hours in the makingIn Whitney's words
From my studio blog
Denzel is one of those ppl who stares at you like you are the only one in the world—that's what makes him such an exceptional actor.
He has the most unique stare of confused, puppy dog eyes, mad, focused, sad—all rolled into one. I had to nail all these emotions in his eye.
Is he just staring into the camera or is he staring into the camera man's soul? That's up to the viewer.
