If you loved El gángster, try La cara sucia de la ley
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Bill Duke, and they both carry the raw mood tag, and they sit in Crime territory. If that's the register that drew you to El gángster, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What La cara sucia de la ley is
A L.A. alley at midnight, rain bouncing off a cracked payphone. Russell Stevens slides a badge into his sock as he takes delivery of a kilo, his rookie act flawless. Bill Duke’s hard-edged crime thriller where the deeper the cover, the thinner the skin grows.
