This is the second film by director Denzel Washington since his first directorial debut a few years ago with the film Antwoine Fisher. THE GREAT DEBATERS is based on a true story of a college professor who inspired a group of students to form the school’s first debate team and they went on to beat Harvard at the national championship. Denzel is top notch actor, as a director he’s still finding his form but I’m betting he’ll get better with age. THE GREAT DEBATERS speak up in theaters everywhere this Christmas. Here’s the trailer.
