{Cocaine Cowboys}
Here's another trailer I found in my inbox...
The cocaine trade of the 70s and 80s had an indelible impact on contemporary Miami. Smugglers and distributors forever changed a once sleepy retirement community into one of the worlds most glamorous hot spots, the epicenter of a $20 billion annual business fed by Colombias Medellin cartel. By the early 80s, Miamis tripled homicide rate had made it the murder capital of the country, for which a Time cover story dubbed the city Paradise Lost. With Cocaine Cowboys, filmmaker Billy Corben puts together an interesting documentary of a cultural explosion that still echoes as Hollywood myth, evidenced by the latest manifestation. The film opens in select theaters July 27th.
