American Gangster
American Gangster was the epic film that fictionalized the true story of Frank Lucas, a drug lord and gangster from North Carolina who smuggled hard drugs into the United States on American service planes returning from the Vietnam War. During the 60’s and 70’s in Harlem, he became a more prominent figure and is notoriously remembered for his ability to cut out the middle man and buy substances directly from the source in the Golden Triangle.
