Storia
On his first day on the job as a narcotics officer in Los Angeles, rookie cop Jake Hoyt (Ethan Hawke) is partnered with Detective Alonzo Harris (Denzel Washington), an experienced but controversial officer known for his unorthodox methods. Throughout their shift together, Harris guides Hoyt through the gritty reality of police work on the mean streets of LA, exposing him to a world of drugs, violence, and corruption. However, as the day progresses, it becomes increasingly clear that Harris is not just bending the rules but breaking them entirely, and his true motivations remain unclear.
Riassunto
Directed by Antoine Fuqua in 2001, 'Training Day' is a neo-noir crime thriller set against the backdrop of the war on drugs in Los Angeles. The film explores themes of police corruption, moral ambiguity, and the blurred line between right and wrong. It follows rookie cop Jake Hoyt as he navigates his first day on the job under the tutelage of veteran detective Alonzo Harris, who challenges Hoyt's ideals and forces him to confront the harsh realities of law enforcement.
