The Frank Matthews Story [HD]

Heroin Super Hero
This is the best crime documentary I've ever seen! It sets many misconceptions perpetuated by "American Gangster" straight. This was a much more fascinating story as well because it seems like he got away with it. Frank Mathews was brilliant and found great success in a field where the odds were against him. Check it out... You won't be disappointed!

The REAL American Gangster
If you saw "American Gangster" about Frank Lucas (starring Denzel and Russel Crowe) and liked it, then this is the documentary for you. Frank Matthews was the ONLY Black drug dealer of his era to take on the Italian Mafia, and he was a MUCH bigger fish than Frank Lucas. Really intersesting story, an indie production, but they did a great job. If you're a crime buff or liked "American Gangster" a MUST SEE

Finally the story about the real King of smack makes it into print
This is a must-read, for anyone who is familiar with Frank's story. I mean Nicky Barnes was big but this guy he was one of the biggest and he certainly puts that mental midget Frank Lucas to shame Hollywood ran off and told the Frank Lucas story without getting their facts straight. Anyone in the know, knows Shorty was the real brains Frank was nothing but a big dumb bully who could barely tie shoes and he did rat out every single person that he ever dealt with you can watch the documentary, Sgts. smack by a dude name Atkins and he'll give you the real deal. But let's stay on point here and talk about just how come it took so long for someone to make a documentary and write a book about this guy and his disappearance is he dead, or is he living in Venezuela, nobody really knows but you better believe somehow someway somebody got their hands on all that alleged money maybe that's why nobody was looking real hard for him. Look how long it took him to find Whitey Bulger you think that...
