    I saw Clifton at the airport probably close to 10 years ago. He seem a little irritated but I spoke to him and told him he played a great Dr. King and he stopped in his tracks and said “ thank you brother” with relief. “ somebody finally recognize I don’t do silly shit all the damn time”. I could tell that meant a lot to hear that.

    An actor that doesn't get enough credit for my liking. I have to edit because I was being misunderstood. He definitely gets his flowers, but I'd love to see him with Denzel, Sam, Morgan, etc. If he's acted alongside them, forgive me. From comedy to drama to horror and beyond. Clifton Powell is a masterclass actor.

    This is how you know Clifton Powell does his job with 200% effectiveness: Not only does he play a role, he creates a soul for the character that is so real, that the audience is helplessly drawn into an alternate reality where they cannot differentiate between the talent and the projection of that talent. Clifton Powell has created iconographic screen imagery and timeless voice acting. This man is an inspiration. You cannot hide someone of this magnitude - they will always rise.

I’ve been watching him since the late 1980’s w/ his BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE on “Roc.” Although yes, he has played gritty characters there’s too many to mention, Mr. Powell has played those roles so BRILLIANTLY that even when I see those past performances it still sends chills down my spine.

    Clifton Powell is more than actor but a realist legend and very versatile in his roles. The royal Sir needs more credit for his in depth skills. genuine soul.

It was a quick turn off for me, therefore I never pursued fame. I appreciate Mr. Powells humility and wisdom, again one of the better interviews I've seen. Salute...
