An outcast New York City cop is charged with bringing down Harlem criminal Frank Lucas, whose real life inspired this partly biographical film.
That coffee cup had 4 days until retirement
He got to old for this shit
Oh MAN I read this comment before it got to that point and I was really trying to remember the context. Once it got there, I can't remember the last time I laughed that hard.
@@matthewfera2954same lmao
HAHAHAHAHA that’s fucked up…
The coffee cup...whatever happened there
"Yeah Frank. Get in line. That one stretches around the block too".
It was that moment when Frank knew that Richie had his number. That Richie was incorruptable and not scared of Frank.
Not only that Richie was already denied to pursue frank and the crime families with him taking frank he also showed them the snakes that let crime continue under there noses
@@rydgemolino*their noses
@@jonb2756 *nobody cares
Actually, the moment was when Richie signaled he wanted corrupt COPS included in Frank's takedown.
People care. @@therealjimbo3206
Fun fact: after all the corruption was arrested, the city was finally clean for a whole 365 minutes.
True😂
If one monster goes down, another one spawns right up
What rises up behind it is almost always worse
“Yeah, and we ain’t gonna get ’em all. That ain’t the kind of world it is, but we got ours” -Marty Hart, True Detective
I clicked your 365th like.
365 hours clean is still the NYC record by a full 364.5 hours!
I bet that 70's courtroom coffee tasted terrible....
😂
Couldn't be all bad, some of those detectives live off that coffee. Then again, it wouldn't really matter at that point would it?
Coffee doesn’t change your life one way or the other.
Starbucks had better coffee than 70s courtroom coffee
@@steverogers7601 keep your pumpkin spice attitude to yourself...
Those guys in the bowling alley deserved prison for wearing those pants in public.
Underrated comment.
Those pants 👀
How do you see through to their pants?
The trousers were more akin to golf.
Things were different in 1971
😂😂😂😂
There is snitching, and there is snitching. Frank just burned all the cops that were dirty. If he was going down, everyone was going down.
He took down all of his “employees”, partners, basically everyone he knew in the country that he couldn’t deny having dealt with.
Spoken like a true rat
took down his family as well
If you’re going down might as well take everyone with you lol
He’s a rat!
That was the cleanest cup smack ive ever witnessed. Not a drop, of that coffee hit that table.
And there was never a dirty cop again
That arrest montage got you brooding ay
And there was nothing they could do about it, it was among the police...real greaseball shit
@@RageQuitProshis brother, whatever happened there
@@jasonfitzpatrick2197 Whatever happened there? WHATEVER HAPPENED THERE!!!?
@@RageQuitProsGood Fellas?
I like how Frank and the Detective find common agreeable grounds knowing where they both come from and what they want. Frank probably never seen a good cop a day in his life. and any good cop he seen probably died in front of him
It must be nice playing the same character in every movie. In this scene, Alonzo, I mean Frank, is basically every character from every other movie this dude's been in.
Are you seriously unaware of Denzel Washington's diverse body of work? He won his first Oscar for "Glory," a historical war drama. In "Mo' Better Blues," he played a jazz musician with big dreams. In "Philadelphia," he was a lawyer defending Tom Hanks' character, who was fired for having AIDS. "Remember the Titans" had him as the head coach of a newly integrated high school football team. I could list 20-30 more films. He’s proven his immense talent repeatedly, and he certainly doesn’t play the same character in every movie.
@@HD-uo5dd Are you seriously not aware of Denzel's body of work? You must not be aware because you would realize that he's the same fckn person in every fckn movie! I have seen just about every Denzel film so you don't need to explain as if I've been living on Mars. It sounds like you need to go watch these movies because you don't know WTF you're talking about! By the way, a lengthy, and even if diverse, body of work doesn't mean that this man is not playing the same fckn guy in every movie! The fact that he says, "My man," in just about every movie is a tremendous indicator that he plays the same fckn guy! I'm going to block you now, so you don't need to respond. I won't get your response. And, lord knows you'll need the last word but you won't get it. At least not here with me. So, piss off!
I ALWAYS thought it was so cool how they switched! Russell Crowe was the villian and Denzel was the good guy back in 1995 in Virtuosity and Russell Crowe was the cop and Denzel was the villian in 2007 in American Gangster😎
Virtuosity is my all-time favorite movie
@@williamhermann6635 It IS an AWESOME movie👍🏿
@@rayc1692 Russell Crowe plays one of the all time best baddies in that movie
Awesome see to someone remembers virtuosity.
@@Stealth-ve7nw Watched it TONS of times as a teen in the '90's👍🏿
"You know what, you can do whatever you wanna do. So it don't mean nothin' to me for you to show up tomorrow mornin' with your head blown off, you understand what I'm sayin'?"
"Yeah Frank. Get in line. That one stretches around the block too."
The moment Frank realized this was a man he couldn't intimidate.
Vastly underrated movie. So epic.
Underrated? Everyone love this movie
This isn't underrated. It's a Ridley Scott movie.
OMG it just occurred to me that, when they keep passing the cup of coffee its symbolic. It's a stand-in for "check" and "checkmate" in chess. Every time one of them makes a really good point about the current topic in the interrogation, they push the cup towards the other in a way of saying, "Check. Your move." They're "one upping" each other. Great writing!
“One ‘cupping’ each other.” 😂
Nah, its way more symbolic of an olive branch being given. Thats why its so important hes given one again after he knocks the first out.
It's not "chess" as chess means beating one another. They're not trying to beat each other. This is more "what can you offer me, with kindness?". I have what you want, can you give me what I want?
Yup! Isn’t it awesome. I wondered if they did that on their own or if it was written in the script already.
and then there's Trupo's cup of coffee spilling at the end
Fun fact: Frank Lucas was shot 197 times by a Russian hit squad at the end of Training Day.
With a handful of peanut butter
@@williamhermann6635Such a shame, he was also a decorated Civil War vet.
@@corneliussmiff2773 Wasnt he that guy in the movie 'Glory'?
@@williamhermann6635 Yeah he won his first Oscar for his performance. Great movie.
his living room looked like shit @@corneliussmiff2773
Love this film …. Denzel and Russel ,,, legends the pair of them !!!
2:43 The moment Richie earned Frank's respect
That coffee spilling on the bed gives me major anxiety 😬
One of denzel Washingtons best movies
Ngl, I love this movie. But after watching the little documentary thing on Frank Lucas and finding out that the REAL Frank Lucas wasn’t nothing more than a errand boy for Bumpy Johnson kinda ruined it for me 😭
I always loved the choice by the writers for the cup of coffee to spill when Trupo stands up. Signifying he’s made his decision to kill himself. If he was still wanting to be alive, he wouldn’t just stand up and ruin his bedsheet by spilling the coffee. But he knew he’d be dead soon, so why should he care.
But…that’s not true at all!
I just watched a scene with Trupo as part of another organization that advanced on the Harkonnen.
Seemed like he was still busy.
now the housekeepers gotta find a dead body, and deal with a coffee stain. no manners at all. the man is pure evil
You’re looking into it way too much
@@dongatello6969 😂 how? That’s clearly what the choice was made for you. It’s not even looking into it too deeply. Why else would they choose to do that?
@@DDavy2014 you're absolutely right, small but significant detail.
Coffee is a witness to a whole lot of things. Fax
The cop on the task force shown at 4:10 is named alvin spearmen.
He was newark PD until he retired. The actual Alvin Spearmen is an incredibly nice 6"0+ black guy. Great guy.
Get,in line! My-man
Can’t blame him for snitching. Everybody got too greedy, it was never going to be enough.
Especially Trupo. Got too personal and pushed Frank too hard.
The amount of acting talent in this movie is staggering.
Frank met his match here. Awesome scene
Sadly the real Frank never really got back on the right way.
He found a jewel encrusted golden turd?
“Here’s pen and paper, tell us where Wakanda is
… And also Thanos while you’re at it”
Such a great movie
amazing acting
Based on true events ..one the best movies Denzel and Russell Crowe have made...
My favorite is how he presses his finger on the table as he’s talking. 👇🏾
Just started reading the book. Amazing
Damn, Trupo was just getting ready to open his mind.
My Man!
“I ain’t seen normal since I was six years old” 💯
Good point
Atleast second cup survived the wrath of the frank
Amazing.
In the end,all these snitches are nothing!!!😢
Frank only snitches on the dirty cops. He didnt snitch on his supplier in Vietnam
I don't think jurisdiction would reach that far.
wouldn't have mattered anyway.
@chrysalis3508 I never said it would of mattered
Who? His wife’s cousin in the Army? He’s back in the USA and the war is over. Communists won. The grower? He’s also in a different country like Laos or Cambodia
What are the cops going to do about the grower 😂 dumb ass
Total respect and trust from Frank to Richie.
So many coffee cups died in this scenes! RIP
Richie had one thing wrong, it was not a thing in the 70s to go after offshore accounts, it wasn't until the 80s when they started going after that money.
“You are special” (Trupo). Knew that was coming even before the scene.
My problem with this otherwise enjoyable movie is there is no way that a guy who just became a lawyer is given the responsibility of handling such a big case
Other than the fact this is a true story and Richie Roberts is a real person who was a detective turned Lawyer and who was indeed given such a high profile case shortly after becoming an assistant prosecutor, that's a really great point you made there 😂
Frank was the biggest snitch of them all 🐀🐀
You can tell they respected eachother. Probably couldve been friends in a alternate life.
"My man"
It's not snitching when you are turning in dirty cops.
Lol ok bud
I mean I don’t know but I don’t think niggas in the streets would be mad if he just told on the cops only 😂
Something a snitch would say. 😂🤣😭
@@hawk66100 Snitching is when you inform on someone who is part of your team. Like when Henry Hill snitched on Paulie and Jimmy so he doesn’t go down for dealing drugs.
Dirty cops aren’t part of Franks organization. They were extorting him and then stole his getaway money, slapped around his wife and killed his dog when they found out Frank was about to get arrested by Richie.
@@alijaffery7735 He didn't just snitch on cops lol, y'all are mad stupid
" My man ", he says in this movie and " my n ... " in Training Day. Owns everyone!
Such a great fucking movie. Both actors are top notch.
Everyone gangsta ‘til they’re passed that coffee cup.
My favorite scene when the bad guys had to answer for what they’ve done.
This is such a great movie, wonder how much of it is true.
Probably 80%
3:55 with that haircut and mustache combo, he needed to go to jail anyways!
It’s sad cause like Richie said.. you represent progress that’s gonna lose them a lot of money. And funny part about it what people get mixed up it ain’t about money. It’s a black man making progress that’s the real issue..
Frank talking about his cousin becoming the new normal has always stood out to me. I was probably around 14 when my dad took me to see this movie so I marvel at the idea that grown men would do a child that way
Stuff like that cements my distrust toward the "authorities"
Not for nothing, when you have to bust a group of punk kids on a regular who very well could blast back at you, you're going to be a little stiff. But I think knocking teeth out is a decent enough message that you're not playing around
There has to be some intelligence in the mind of an officer that merits the justice they are trying to uphold. As in the system is going to do its duty to correct a young fool
You on the other hand are honor bound. In fact its in your anonymity which merits strength. My dad happened to work in corrections as a rehabilitation educator. He knows full well that the police hire hot blooded greenhorns
4:08 I could swear this is Kujan from Usual Suspects, but it can't be the same actor
I wish I had that white t-shirt.
When Denzel says My man I go with him
“They are gettin too old for this shit”
Gangster, Civil Rights Activist, Sub Commander, Crooked Cop, Ex CIA Op. etc..
Denzel is such a good actor, he could play a fire engine and make you believe he really is one..
This is quite inaccurate. Mr. Untouchable snitched because they killed his girlfriend.
I think the important question is what was in Josh Brolin's mug at the end of this clip? Since when does coffee sizzle when it spills on a blanket? Was the mug full of acid? Was the blanket covered in splooge and that's the sound that coffee hitting splooge soaked blanket makes? I'm so confused.
The coffee was hot fool
2:31 they're not my kind
Idk the coffee cup falling down and spilling coffee all over the bed looked like someone blowing their brains as they fell down. Kinda like what Trupo was about to do.
I'm here because of that skit. 😂
What the cop said to frank about the other family don't wanna see him successful even stands on law abiding citizens
Great fking movie!!!
After all the cleaning, there was no more bad cops ever again.
The mezzanos testified against him?! For what
Frank lucas didnt die poor btw he was worth about half a mil when he died
Damn Frankie lukie went out comfy
Worth and actually have money are 2 different things
Broke my heart when Frank told
Why
@welcome_to_macnelsonworld because it ruined his legacy. He would've been Top 5 black American Gangsters if he didn't cooperate but because he did he doesn't even count
Tekashi and now frank .dam 😔
Giva' f--k about no police...slaps coffee across room that is some true east coast og gangsta shit...well stayed and well said..
War Against the Panthers Richie just be honest
I guess coffee is not Frank’s cup of tea.
*Lucas never served a single day of the 70-year sentence and died a free man of 88. Meanwhile, Richie was convicted of perjury, theft, tax evasion and was disbarred.*
Arrest them all Richie 😭
I only recently watched this and it wasn’t as good as I thought it would be
You could be the biggest gangster in the end everyone snitches!
What a snitch
Used to watch a movie where Russell was the bad guy and Denzel was a cop
The character of Richie is real. He exists. He has lived to a ripe old age. He was a respected criminal defense attorney. How this bizarre event took place after he made so many mortal enemies, is difficult to explain.
I didn't damage anyone's life you did all that. Stop blaming the underdog.
Harlem: "I DONT CARE WHAT IT COST JUST MAKE THIS MAN WELL AGAIN!"
Frank: "Thank you harlem"
Him passing him the coffe cup bothered me for some reason
One of Denzels best roles imo
American Gangster is such a great movie
If anyone found out him snitching on people, he probably get stabbed at some point.
I'm innocent Richie that's the truth.
Italians weren’t worried about black bizz bullshit. Making something more than it was. He was allowed because the powers to be let him. Made money happy spade till he wasn’t allowed to.
As much as Russel Crowe is awesome in this he let his accent slip a little
If you think he just told on “dirty cops” then you trippin he told on “gangsters” too
Richie I was only trying to see if you were still here. I dont know you and if I say something just ignore it.
I don't think there's a movie scene with Denzel that I don't like at this point
What sucks is that 95% of films or books on Organized crime figures end with them telling because that allows for all the details and the basis of the film/book. The very few that didnt tell, we dont know the fine details of their story, we can guess but without publicly available documents and transcripts its tough to fill in the blanks. The people who stood tall and didnt tell are the ones that I think deserve the praise, not these dudes who played the game and got the benefits and then told on another man to get out of what they did, thats a coward. I can say that because Ive been put to the test and given the option to make a phone call and everything would go away, I could never look at myself in the mirror doing that. People who do make that choice to tell end up doing a life sentence as a rat
5:06 in reality, he faked his death, escaped, and and came back to collect six Infinity Stones and wipe out half of all life
Was this before " snitches get stitches " ? Asking for a friend.
