    2018 film starring Johnny Depp and Forest Whitaker.

    I’d never heard of it. Was never really promoted for various reasons you could read about on wikipedia. Its about the murder of Biggie Smalls in Los Angeles. The murder was never officially solved, but there’s reasons to believe off-duty LA Police officers had a hand in it.

    Anyway, i was expecting absolutely nothing from it. Figured i’d watch for ten minutes and then toss the dvd. But it was interesting. Based on a book, that addresses the LA PD’s relationship with Death Row records and the Gangs that are part of that scene.

    Johnny Depp plays the kind of role I’ve never seen him play. Very low key.

    need a “good movie” thread…. i’ll need to check this out.

    So much programming and rarely promoted good movies out there, that I just don’t know what to watch.
