Loosely based on the criminal career of Frank Lucas, a gangster from La Grange, North Carolina, who smuggled heroin into the United States on American service planes returning from the Vietnam War, before being detained by a task force led by Newark Detective Richie Roberts.

American Gangster
A really good crime film about the rise and fall of a drug lord. Played by Denzel Washington.
There’s also another story line about a detective trying to take down Washington’s character.
Played by Russell Crow.
It’s based on true events that make it more compelling to watch.
