In Daised & Reviewed you will see reviews for different kinds of movies, some are famous and some are not… so this might be a chance for you to get introduced to new ones.
Al Pacino and Marlin Brando did wonders by embodying the Mafiosi figure and portraying family connections as if it was all real and as if they all existed some time back in the 1950’s.
A movie about drugs, love, agony, & family ties …what a combination! You will think. To start with, this movie is a true story… we have here a biography but with a director’s (Ted Demme) full mindset flexibility for delivering this story to the public.
From a broad outlook, other than being a true story, this movie seems to be a lousy replica of the all times masterpiece “The God Father”. It has the same concept & frame of mind but different people and places, this time it is in Harlem and about an African American whose name is Frank Lucas (Denzel Washington).
