The Times (UK) weighs in with a good Cocaine Cowboys review
Friday, November 23, 2007 at 8:54AM leave it to The Times to reference Hogarth:
Cocaine Cowboys is a hair-raising documentary by Billy Corben about the tidal wave of cocaine that swamped Miami in the Seventies and Eighties. His access to crime lords, hit men and drug dealers is frightening. This is a who’s who of villains, a Hogarthian gallery of crooks from the MedellÍn cartel in Colombia to the pilot who flew the dope into Miami.
The haystacks of cash and coke are laughably insane – as is the head-count: thousands of people were gunned to death. This is the only state in the world where Scarface might raise a smile.
