Final Scene Speech

Washington won an Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance in the 2001 cop thriller. He was the second African-American performer to win an Academy Award for Best Actor, the first being Sidney Poitier who happened to receive an Honorary Academy Award the same night that Washington won. Presently Washington holds the record (six) for most Oscar nominations and most wins (two) by an African-American actor (male or female).
