Spike Lee and Denzel Washington joined forces to create the memorable Mo’ Better Blues. Washington plays Bleek Gilliam, a trumpeter who must find balance between his friends, lovers and music. Denzel has an air of freedom about him throughout the film that he has rarely (if ever) been able to recreate. Bleek becomes a lovable, yet infuriating character thanks to Denzel’s captivating portrayal.
