...collar with Menace II Society. The film, about black, disenfranchised youth, opened to critical acclaim and big box office. They returned to that milieu in 1995 with the ambitious Dead Presidents, about a black Vietnam soldier returning to a life of crime in the hood. With American Pimp, a controversial 1999 documentary, they took a straight-on view of the gold-medallion and Cadillac...
...damage control on the J.F.K. "whack" that they helped plan on the orders of their Mob overlords.

His scruples will diminish when he hooks up with Littell and Bondurant...

Asuma has a little trouble with anger-management. Spotting a pimp at police headquarters, he fells the guy and kicks him in the head. Out on the street, he kicks a perp when he's down; when his fellow cop jumps down to shield the man, Asuma kicks him too. The message couldn't be clearer if it were spelled out in neon above the Ginza. Good guys and bad guys use the same methods of punishment; they may be the same guys, except one has a badge. We pay the cops to do our dirty work...
