@DiscussingFilm Denzel dropped a truth bomb most “influencers” can’t process: If your soul’s on display 24/7, don’t be shocked when they treat it like background noise. Mystery builds magnetism. Silence sells. Even gods don’t speak every day.

@DiscussingFilm This wisdom hits different when you realize Denzel barely has social media presence yet remains one of Hollywood's most bankable stars. He's built a career on the anticipation of seeing him transform into characters, not seeing his breakfast posts 🎭

@DiscussingFilm Denzel Washington is a wise man. I think he would be a really interesting person to have a conversation with.

@DiscussingFilm Denzel’s right. In a world where everyone’s chasing clout, mystery is currency. Silence builds value. Scarcity sells. Fame isn’t about being seen nonstop. It’s about being missed.

@DiscussingFilm The Rock is one of the highest grossing actors and his movies do well and he has a big online presence. Denzel doesn’t understand social media and the power it has.

@DiscussingFilm I can see who hasn’t read the 48 Laws of Power in the comments lol. I’ve witness celebrities get their careers ended playing with randoms from social media. Sound advice

@DiscussingFilm Exactly, the mystic is what makes you want more. Something a lot of other famous people should learn.

@DiscussingFilm But Hollywood casts people who have a big following over their acting ability 😂 so idk about this take

@DiscussingFilm Or, if you’re not worried about your purse, use your platform to do more than make people cheer at the screen. Tell people to be better. And free Palestine.

@DiscussingFilm That's very interesting advice. People tend to love interacting with celebrities like @JohnCena and they still support his movies and shows
