Denzel Washington, Russell Crowe Interview American Gangster

Description :

Frank Lucas, once Harlem's biggest heroin dealer in the early 1970s, operated from a beat‑up Chevrolet he called Nellybelle and a suite at the Regency Hotel, where he kept a wardrobe of custom suits and a fleet of luxury cars. He ran a tightly controlled ring called the Country Boys, hiring only family and rural North Carolinians whom he trusted more than city boys. Lucas’s signature product, Blue Magic, boasted 10% purity and sold in the afternoons when police shifts changed, allowing him to move large quantities before law enforcement could respond. He would sit in Nellybelle watching money roll in, remaining a shadow in Harlem’s underworld.
