It contrasts with the "Blood Five" that I watched the previous two days. It talks about the drug trafficking and sales of American gangs under the background of the Vietnam War, and the embarrassment of gangs and black police. Although the narrative is straightforward, I was very nervous when I watched it. There are many scenes of junkie injections in slums in the movie, and there are addicts dying beside babies, which is quite disturbing.
The head of this gang is not Italian, nor Irish. It turned out to be black. The investigating detective Rickie has always believed that Frank Lucas was the reason for his work. Unexpectedly, he just eliminated Erdao traffickers and directly purchased goods from the Golden Triangle controlled by the Kuomintang and used the US military in Vietnam. Big boss who transports drugs and distributes them.
In Frank's life, apart from drug trafficking, he can be regarded as diligent, courteous and thrifty; Rickie is one of the few upright police officers. He once checked the gang's millions of cash and turned in so that no other police were willing to cooperate with him, and the backup could not be called. Fortunately the Federal The government decided to crack down on drug crimes so that he could use his fist. Rickie is also very special. He is an honest policeman, but he is a scumbag who deceives his wife and children. At the same time, he is still working as a lawyer in the test bar, becoming the first case of a defense lawer, as Frank's defender. Frank reduced the 70-year prison sentence to 15 years because he was a tainted witness who identified a third of the police in the police agency.
The way of shooting should be real, but it is so dramatic.
