Cocaine Cowboys 2 - Hustling with the Godmother

[precious007]

Quite an interesting documentary

pretty long but worth watching

I saw the first one and it was great.

yep the first one was great too ;-)

First one was very good. I didn't care for the second one. If my memory serves me correct there are several animated cut-scenes throughout the film that seemed insanely out of place.

the second one mostly talks about the Godmother, the first one seems more documented though.

just a thought. Insane amounts of money they were making back in those years :-)

I know, right? it kind of makes one feel like a sucker earning an honest living

in the 80's

40 million a week

would be like saying now 400 million dollars a week

not even Google or the largest corporations earn that kind of money

yet, the leaders of cocaine traffic were making piles of money on autopilot

it does, sort of make you feel like that but it's too big of a risk these days

I bet in the 70's 80's police would easily take 1K and let the dealers do their job

at the corner of the street

maybe it still happens today in some states........
