A masterpiece for it's content and superb acting

Rating: Null/10 (4 March 2005)

An excellent history document not only exposing Malcom X's ideas and believes but also for exposing the circumstances in which he grew and that turned him into a devout Ellijah Muhammed follower and ultimately into a leader. This set of details really helps one understand the evolutionary progress on Malcom's intellectuality.
All of it is supported by an outstanding performance by Denzel Washington who seems to re-incarnate Malcom X bringing him back to life in a such a shocking way that it must have scared some of Malcom's acquaintances. Spike Lee and all the anti-black racist conspiracy believers must have felt they were right when the Oscar of best actor was swept away from Denzel Washington.
A must have in all public, school and college libraries for it's documental value.
