American Gangster (2007)

Thanks to our commissioner Josh “Anubus21” from Saxapahaw, NC. Josh selected American Gangster, the 2007 crime drama starring Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe. Jim and I had never seen it, but it immediately fit right beside other greats like Godfather, Goodfellas, Casino, and Scarface in the pantheon of films about the criminal underworld. It’s a great looking, well written, and extraordinarily acted film, that touches on a lot of Bald Move hot buttons of racism, crime, drugs, and $50k
