CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Frank (Denzel Washington) teaches his family about business then takes a break to collect his money after shooting Tango (Idris Elba) on the street.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Director Ridley Scott spins this yarn concerning a Harlem drug kingpin (Denzel Washington) who smuggles heroin into the country by hiding it in the bodies of U.S. soldiers killed during battle in Vietnam. There was a time when no one noticed reserved driver Frank Lucas (Washington), but when the criminal kingpin he was charged with transporting through the city streets suddenly dies, Lucas seizes the opportunity to build his own criminal empire. In the following months, Lucas solidifies his status as Harlem's most innovative drug dealer by delivering a product that is purer than the competitors' and cheaper, as well. When innovative businessman Lukas attempts to go semi-legit by becoming one of the Manhattan borough's biggest civil supporters, however, street-savvy outcast cop Ritchie Roberts (Russell Crowe) begins to sense a sizable shift in the hierarchy of the drug underworld. But Roberts is one of the few honest detectives operating within a corrupt system, and as he sets out to investigate the case, crooked detective Trupo (Josh Brolin) does everything in his power to compromise the integrity of his idealistic counterpart. Upon clearing all of the usual Mafia-connected suspects, Roberts begins to believe that a previously unknown black power player has come out of the woodwork to dominate the local drug trade. While Roberts and Lucas may be operating on opposite sides of the law, the one thing that both men have in common is a strict code of ethics that separates them from their opportunistic colleagues. Now, as a confrontation between the two men becomes inevitable and the fate of each becomes inexorably tied to the other, it gradually becomes apparent that only one of them will emerge from the conflict victorious.

“Whatchu gonna do, you gonna shoot me in front of everybody?”
-Man who got shot in front of everybody
Frank knew he was going to kill him as soon as he saw him. No hesitation to pull the trigger.
At least he died with a smug smile on his face.
Apparently the answer was yes he was going to shoot him in front of everybody.
LOL right...RIP Bozo
That was gangsta of frank
He did say "Come on"
Frank was glad to take him on that offer
the most “gangsta” part about this scene wasn’t Frank killing him in broad daylight, it was that he walked back and finished his breakfast after killing someone in broad daylight.
But got mad when his cousin was dressing flashy talking bout bringing too much attention 😭
To add to that he sits down and says “what was I saying”. As if he had just lost his train of thought.
Business as usual
A few hundred feet away too !
@@Crcmvnt His brothers watched in shock.
The fact that you have great actors in this movie like Idris Elba and Chiwetel Ejiofor playing secondary roles tells you something about the quality of the cast.
Even Common!
its an excellent flick,, josh brolin, russell crowe, ted levine, carla gugino, cuba gooding jr, john hawkes, john ortiz
@Potato Joe L
just as cocky as stringer bell in this one too😭
@Potato Joe you must have watched the Walmart version then
That 20% cost him 100% of everything 💀
You can tell the reason he killed him wasn't for the money; it was for respect.
Your smart
@@callonejaxon5191 yor not!!
stunning insight
@Guima Channel Depends on who you kill. If you kill a person who is both hated and feared then you will become a loved hero. People will love and fear you; like a father. That my friend is true respect. Idris' character was clearly a bully whom his own bodyguard hated enough not to defend him.
Captain obvious
"what are you gonna do, shoot me?"
-man who was shot
Famous last words
This needs more attention lmao
I would say about 80% of Idris Elba's roles end with him dying. He died in this film, Prometheus, Pacific Rim, The Jungle Book and No Good Deed. Does he die in the Dark Tower? I have yet to see it.
@@Ronnie2839 dont forget he died in the wire also
Lol
Bro’s last words were, “you gonna shoot me?”
"In front of everybody, huh? C'mon"
Ahhhh!
that were not his last words dude

This isn't just the best scene of this movie, it's one of the best scenes EVER in a gangster movie.

@@wickrman1 No one asked for his or your input either lil bro what's ur point
I'll make him an offer he can't refuse...
@@PiroKUSS ima nut on your face is my point lil bro
Nothing makes me angrier than someone whose suppose to pay you back, knowing they got the money, but they choose not too.
Honestly. When people come to me with money loans, I reply with a fair warning. I ask them “if I give you money, will you be able to pay me back? Or will I have to find you? I don’t want to have to look for you.” Even if it’s $20, it’s about the principle.
Daniel Ortiz exactly
You seem like you don't learn you're lesson the first time for you to say that?
Never loan money, never talk money, never flaunt money....keeps the vultures away
You know why....your job is not done in their eyes.
That bodyguard definitely lied on his resumé.
Yeah I was like wtf. Did he just run away?
I don’t think he read the LinkedIn job description
@@ellemoe2919 lol
Worst bodyguard in the history of bodyguards LOL
U can actually see him just calmly walking away
The way he didn't locked eyes with him while he pulled the triggerx that was cold
Nah, colder to look a man in the eyes as you watch that last little bit drain as they accept the cold embrace.
Such an iconoc scene.Washington's facial expression just before pulling the trigger, if noticed, greatly enhances the impact of the moment he executed Elbra. Undoubtedly two of the greats in modern film, and supremely high quality writing behind the scenes keep this film in my top 5 favorite movies.
mans was like 🔫🙄
didnt even looked at him while pulling the trigger
U know its serious when they kill off idris elba early in a movie
@smile cute you don't know what you're talking about.
Avengers Infinity War lol
@@Stud03Muffin Robert Mccall equalized Brixton Lore, No sweat!
That's what I said ...lol...
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Here's a lesson: If a dude has the balls to openly pull a gun on you in front of witnesses in broad daylight, he's not just gonna meekly put it back in his pocket if you don't comply.
very good point
Such solid logic that would have saved his life, unfortunate
Eh although safe words to live by, i feel this wouldn't always be the case. But i ain't testing it out....
Great life hack!
At the very least you should avoid screaming "Cmon!" :/ Famous last words
The most, cold-blooded, gangster moment in movie history. This chilled me to the bone man.
I love how he ONLY took his 20% and left the rest of the money.
Just enough to cover the food
I disagree. Samuel L Jackson in Pulp Fiction, the hamburger seen is #1, Robert De Niro killing Don Fanucci in Godfather II is #2, Joe Pesci shooting Spider in Goodfellas is #3, and this scene is #4 ... Ricky getting shot in Boyz in the Hood is #5
@@topspot4834 - Nope. That moment was funny. The moment in American Gangster was not.
Actually He Took 80% and Left The Victim 20%

He is dead the 20 percent don't mean anything
@@edvenuto9614 oh wow, thanks Captain Obvious
“Ma man”
@@edvenuto9614 that clear conscious is worth more than 20%
You know what is absolutely badass and respectable about this scene is the fact that you have someone who used to think they were better than someone else and they thought that meant something, then the other more humble person out does them. Because Tango is on his high horse with his over inflated ego and he literally gets blown away by Frank Lucas who at the time in the movie was completely humble and honest and integral and professional. It is amazing
Do you know the name of that compilation where they show scenes in movies just like that? Where somebody's overly cocky because they think the main character won't kill them but they do.
@@mider-spanman5577 No I'm not sure
Yes... The good old days when Drug Lords/Kingpins, were honest, humble, integral, and professional(sigh).
And thats when they knew frank was a sociopath

Can’t do that now these days without someone busting out their phone 😂
Unfortunately
As confident as Django appears, he looks at his bodyguard twice, whereas frank doesnt look at him or his own bodyguard once. Thats real power
You calling him Django instead Tango 😂
@@TheBlackKakashi The 'D' is silent. lol

Denzel: you ain't a famous actor yet!
rofl exactly
Lol!
Guess you could say Denzel was somebody, Idris was nobody
guitarman0365 he was though
@@Richardson_mma meh debateable. Just because you might have known him before doesnt mean he was widely known yet. I could be wrong though I never knew him until the movie obsessed. His biggest movies which would have reached the widest audience and grown his fame was 28 weeks later and this movie so I'm pretty sure it was very early in the days where he was not a big name star yet.
The best part of his scene is that he just takes what he is owed. It sends a powerful message to everyone that deals with him. And that's, ironically: Be virtuous, don't get greedy, uphold your end of the bargain and you wont get your head blown off.
Will technically his head didn't get blown off he just had another hole added to it 🤣
@@blackheartkoda2269 Oh so kind of like a nose ring lol
@@blackheartkoda2269 bruh it's a figure of speech....
Did u not see him leave him the jar with two bills taken off that stack? He left him 20% lol I thought that at first too pay closer attention
Why was the ending of that comment so funny lol it starts off and is going along as a very serious saying, then ends with "and you wont get your head blown off" lol

Denzel has the coolest walk ever
Denzel Washington is by far one of the greatest actors ever to do it. I believe he may be the very best actor of any generation.
Nah, he ain't better than dicaprio, dd lewis, al pacino and deniro. But he's up there
@@7yep4336dfgvvh daniel day lewis is over rated kid.. denzel is one of the best, deniro was great but hes nuts now.. Pacino is one of the greats,, dicaprio is an awesome actor, but not in the same league as those, period

And not wearing a bowtie.😏

yeah just saw this short bit Off of it gonna watch it tonight seems like good movie
They got famous after this movie.

I did. l
@@sgt.hollowpoint6968 nooo alot of then was famous wayy before it's my guy
The fact that he gave him 20% after even after he killed him shows how honest this mans really is in his business line
He took 20% not give
I was not expecting him to actually pull the trigger in broad daylight. This scene stunned me in theaters
I love this scene. Agree with me, in every movie when you get to see a scene like this, the guy with the gun NEVER shoots. I did not expect this when I saw it for the first time. Great movie.
Mojo Risin a
its fuckin denzel, what u expect :D
Mojo Risin a
i think this was meant as a bluff, then he had to act or else , you see what i mean?
Mojo Risin dont forget that this was based on a true story, which is always unpredictable

Sincerely,
EVERYBODY
Now that's dope
ay that boondocks reference lmao
6ix9ine: BUT I DID
Boondocks!!!
😂😂😂😂
Frank Lucas even scared the gangster out of Common 😂
Denzel Washington did that. The real Frank Lucas was a deranged coward who would sell out anyone to save himself.
Denzel Washington - The guy who can be a great father figure and a hell of a gangster at the same time.
Moral of the story: 20% of the money isn’t worth more than 100% of your life
Tim Bray : Real talk 💯
Straight up...
Well actually the moral of the story is don’t do business with gangsters because they will kill you
His math is right. It's your attitude that is wrong.

Gotta say, this was one of the most shocking scenes I've seen because you know something bad was going to happen, but doubted since it was Idris Elba until it happens. Wish more films had the balls like they did with this.
Have you ever seen that compilation where they show similar scenes to this where the person gets overly arrogant and doesn't think the person will pull the trigger or kill them, but they do unexpectedly? I can't think of the name!
@mider-spanman5577 I haven't, but would love to see it. Especially if they have a big time Hollywood actor. My other 2 favorites is Tropic Thunder when Steve Cooghan gets blown up and when Brad pitt gets electrocuted in Deadpool 2.
Love how he looks at the guys henchman as he pulls the trigger. Pretty much says “you know what happens next if you step in; yeah that’s what I thought”
Gotta appreciate acting royalty here. Denzel and Idris Elba face to face. The scene is legendary in movie history

Yep, and with that it was gon be O V.
I think he knew his response.
At that point, he has to shoot him wether he pays or not. He's not likely to let it slide that he was punked in front of his people.

Nino Brown was a coldblooded killer also!
The music is perfect
Watch the movie Sicarrio, and the family dinner scene near the end of the movie. That was a much better scene than this one.

Nope. Opinions are opinions, I have no desire to change them, and can't anyways. I am simply saying that there are many other actors out there who are much more of a "one in a million" than Denzel. I quite like Denzel actually, I am just able to see that some actors have far more talent.
Nah, Denzel is a once in a generation actor maybe two generations.
Well, at least he doesn't have a headache anymore.... 😆
This scene was so realistic in the aspect of their dialogue to their interaction & how fast confrontation goes down to where someone dies unexpectedly. This happens everyday. Even with camera’s basically everywhere.
This never happens in real life like this. It didn't even happen in the real life story the film is based on. It's an exaggerated portrayal to make Lucas seem way more badass than he ever really was.

This is also a message to Frank's family members there that any disrespect won't be taken lightly showing he wasn't the same Frank they knew and also evoking fear within them keeping them inline.

"Dear police, we didn't see anything,
Sincerly, Everybody"
I understood that reference
maybe the implication is that the police didn't even care what "everybody" said, especially in a wild place like NYC. Also, maybe the police liked Denzel's character because he was kicking up a bit of the profits he was making, so the detectives didn't ask "everybody" what happened

@@solitary2 No snitching!
Of course Denzel is amazing in this scene, but Idris Elba plays it perfectly as well.
An extremely legend of a film, that should be known even more, and receive more credits for its dynamics. Such an amazing storyline, characters, soundtrack and led by two legendary actors, Denzel Washington and Russel Crowe who brought so much emotion, and action to it. What makes the film even greater is the many lessons and lines that are brought up, and what's even greater is how it's based on a true story. Honestly, worth watching no matter what. Had watched this on my birthday years back, and really an unforgettable film, that till this day I have never forgotten about. Don't want to spoil much, but its a must-see. Like this scene, is so powerful, and there's so many others. 4.19.2020
Well that made brunch awkward.
cqtaylor lol, yes what do you talk about after that lol
Certainly put me off my cherry muffin.
hey lucas ? need a bodyguard ?
I was thinking the same thing...now everyone's going to have to drink their coffees without sugar since he poured it on the plate.
That's our biggest fault as black people. I know in the streets of black neighborhoods in the 60s you could kill and get away with it, but if I see my brother kill somebody I don't care if he's going to make me millions of dollars I would've went back to North Carolina that same day. Considering his brothers got arrested too.

Frank Lucas was making 100 million a year. It wouldn't mean anything to him to kill in broad daylight. No cameras or forensic DNA in those days. They wouldn't even have been able to get prints from the gun.
Thats because in real life it didnt happen like in the movies. In real life, the diner scene didnt happen. Frank walk down the street, had that convo, shot him and ran. Everything except the diner scene is accurate.
I love Denzel in this movie
Indeed! He is a great actor. I like every move and every reaction he expresses during his acting. The only description I have in mind is "Manly, Courageous and Persistent". That is the way he looks even in his appearance and personality. Make me feel very proud to have friends like him.
I believe anything Denzel does as an actor, he’s as real as they come.
Yep, he wanted that scene be so authentic so he had a real gun.
@@LucaBrasi0 And shot him for real, so it be as real as it gets.
@@Armor3d0ne Yep. That is real method acting.
DonVal86 family
Aye.🤨🎬🎥👊☘️🇺🇸...
From the looks of it, he probably owed his body guard money too. 😂
“I didn’t like that mf anyway” 😂
I bet the bodyguard took the money from the jar.
@@imrankh68 he probably did😆
@@213byron in a Denzel accent 😭
I was just thinking dude has the literal worst bodyguard ever!
Music queues in at just the right time man. “Either you’re somebody or you’re nobody”
This scene.... It's one of the best scenes in the cinematic world!
This was one hell of a movie. The great cast lived up to their reputation 🫡👏
Denzel Washington is a legend.
so is baphomet and beelzebub
Laurence Fishburne is nowhere to be found in this clip. The dead guy is an English actor.
No it isn't, the main characters in the clip are Idris Elba and Denzel Washington
stonem001 tremenda
He shot him while looking straight at his bodyguard. Damn.
now u mention it, gives me chill
Daring him to do or say anything. Respect to the bodyguard though. He knew stopping Frank was a death sentence and when the deed was done he walked calmly away.
Not saying violence is the key but respect is a way of life's
I noticed that and the bodyguard couldn't do a damn thing but watch.
I didn't catch that at first.
"The most important thing is business is honesty, integrity, hard work, family."
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Someone needs to tell the scriptwriter what "business" means lol
He doesn't even look when he shoots him. To him, this is just something to roll his eyes over and be done with like he's done this 1000 times before...
Little did he know his bodyguard 1:09 put in his two weeks notice 13 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds ago

Fredrick Smith-something. An important one at that.

Fredrick Smith-something. Cmon BANG
terry oneill he didnt scream the girl did and youve never killed anyone if you think there is never a sound sometimes theres a death rattle
Fredrick Smith-something. Real quick
Cops : nothin' to see here. Same story in Chicago, Detroit, Baltimore, St. Louis.
The heartbeat BG track is insane ! Super
The real Frank Lucas did this in real life, makes it even scarier he got away with it.
ANTI HERO Why are you so upset?
Yeah back in the day no one gave no fucks if you gotten shot in the streets.
"It wasn’t a drug gang initiation or anything, he just pointed out that this guy was very dangerous and people feared him, so when Lucas got away with killing him, he got a lot of fear and respect himself. The guy he killed was called Tango and he was a large bald-headed gangster who owed Lucas some money and wouldn’t pay it"
He got away with it because of fear and respect
Alfie Moon Although there is no statue of limitations on murder anywhere in this country. good luck find any witnesses from that day. Lol
