American Gangster
“There are two sides to the American dream.”
Frank Lucas (Denzel Washington), a driver for a Harlem drug lord, wants to build an empire of his own. He smuggles heroin into New York on military planes returning from Vietnam, undercutting every competitor and becoming the neighborhood's sharpest-dressed kingpin. But detective Richie Roberts (Russell Crowe) assembles a task force to take him down, and Frank's hunger to stay on top will cost him everything he has built.
