Explanation
Denzel Washington won the Best Actor award at the 74th Academy Awards (2002) for his performance in 'Training Day.' This was his second Oscar and first for Best Actor. Russell Crowe was a strong contender for 'A Beautiful Mind' but lost to Washington. Jim Broadbent won Best Supporting Actor that year for 'Iris.' Jim Carrey, while a prominent actor, has never won an Oscar. The 74th Oscars were notable for Washington's historic win as only the second African American to win Best Actor.
