We're continuing our June #Denzelathon with a look at Ridley Scott's 2007 crime epic American Gangster, with Denzel starring as heroin kingpin Frank Lucas opposite a New Jersey cop played by Russell Crowe.

Join in as we discuss Denzel in the 2000s, Ruby Dee's Oscar-nominated performance as his mom, the film's long development, and its exceedingly flat female characters.

Plus: How much of this movie is actually based in reality? Did Frank take Eva to his mom's house on theri first date? How many times was the real Frank Lucas arrested? And, most importantly, when is a coat too fancy to be safe?

Make sure to rate, review, and subscribe!

Next week: Roman J. Israel, Esq. (2017)
