no Training Day was Denzel's Doggystyle IMO he was AMAZING in training day first time playing a bad guy made you hate him....and if i remember correctly he won a best actor award for that role right? and imagine winning that award with a movie about the subject that it is.... its kinda rare to see that shit.... you usually get those kinda awards in crazy dramas and stuff not no currupt action gang bangin shit...

Didn't Denzel win his best supporting actor playing a guy people hated (he did redeem himself but the performace was still more a villain than hero as far as acting went.
And to whoever said Scent of A woman was a guilt Oscar for Scarface; I disagree on both counts; 1. He was amazing in Scent and deserved it just as much as any body else, a 2. if it was a guilt Oscar it wasn't for Scarface, it was for his 3 straight nods in '73, '74, and '75 for Serpico, Godfather pt.2 , and Dog Day Afternoon respectively, and the 4th nod he got for ...And Justice for All. He wasn't even nominated for Scarface and given the competition that year I'm not sure if he should have been. Montana was a cool character and he did a nice Cuban gangster impression but the roles he had been nominated for were all better in my opinion. Nostalgia and coolness will aleays make people from our generation think of Scarface as better than it really was.

Do you know what the nominees were for that year? (1983 I believe). I'm sure whoever won's character isn't nearly as legendary as Tony Montana ;D
