COCAINE COWBOYS

I watched an amazing documentary yesterday called, "Cocaine Cowboys." If you get chance to rent this you won't be disappointed. It shows the ruthlessness of the cocaine trade in Miami (in the 70's and 80's).

Part of the documentary is with a man that confessed to killing an insane number of people. He tells his stories with little remorse. It's chilling to see a man talk about shooting someone in the head and then follow it up with a sentence like, "it was just business." I find it interesting because I feel like he didn't care about his life but, in a way, he held it above all others.

I won't give anything else away in case you decide to see it but make sure you watch the special features on the DVD as well. It has some really interesting stories in there too.
