I found it disturbing in the "making of AG" how the real Frank Lucas was akin to some sort of folk hero and people were falling over themselves to "kiss his ring." That's how it seemed to me. This is a repugnant man who made his living through selling drugs and killed many people directly or indirectly. Frankly it sickened me.
Loved the film though.

Yeah i heard a documentary about him, they said he'd take people who fooled them on their stash/money up on a bridge and told them they'll be thrown down. When they crapped their pants of fear he'd make them eat their own feces.
All the life killing people for snitching yet turned on everybody himself in the end.
A worthless piece of beep

"When you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the respect."
For those unaware of street lifestyle, this is something even you wouldn't understand.
