This video essay compares Denzel Washington's performance in Training Day (Warner Bros) to the script written by David Ayer. So much of Denzel's dialogue was improvised and ad-libbed, he completely changed the ending and amped up the conflict and unpredictability of scenes, which lead to him earning his first Best Actor Oscar. This is a thorough analysis of the improvised changes Denzel Washington made to Training Day (2001).
