After amassing one of the most stellar careers in Hollywood history, Denzel Washington's best movies have made a massive mark on moviegoers and society. However, because his top films are often so magnificent, even exceptional movies that he has headlined can sometimes fly under the radar.
One Washington movie that has long failed to garner the recognition it deserves is the 2007 historical drama The Great Debaters. Soon, viewers who haven't had the chance to see the film, and those who desire to revisit it, will soon have a new way to enjoy it.
The Great Debaters Will Be Streaming On Tubi In October
The Great Debaters is one of several movies that will be added to Tubi's media library on October 1. Tubi is a completely free streaming service that costs users nothing because it relies on advertising to fund its operation. Its services can be accessed through a browser or the app, which is supported by most modern smart TVs.
While there are many fantastic movies available on Tubi, October 1 will be a big day for the service's users who enjoy Washington's work. That's because the actor's captivating 1995 neo-noir film Devil in a Blue Dress is also set to become available on Tubi on the same day.
The Great Debaters Is One Of Denzel Washington's Most Underrated Movies
There are many reasons why The Great Debaters is one of Denzel Washington's most underrated movies. The most obvious is the fact that the film captures an important true story that more people should know about. The movie focuses on a college debate team traveling to match their wits against other schools in the South during the Jim Crow era. Throughout it all, the team and their coach, portrayed by Washington, have to overcome severe racism in a story that is inspiring and disturbing.
Another reason why The Great Debaters deserves more credit is that it doesn't simply rely on its star's onscreen charisma. Instead, the film boasts compelling performances from its young cast members and Forest Whitaker in a supporting role. It is also remarkable for featuring many of the classic beats that moviegoers love from sports movies, while also transcending the formula. For those reasons and more, The Great Debaters deserves more attention, and there is no better time to enjoy it than when it will soon be free to watch.
