On Thursday, July 20th, I was invited to attend
the NYC screening of John Singleton's FX TV series "Snowfall". I was totally entertained and educated about the history of crack cocaine from Mr. Singleton's brilliant filmmaking and story telling perspective. A must see!

ABOUT "SNOWFALL"
Los Angeles 1983. A storm is coming and its name is crack. Snowfall
is a one-hour drama set against the infancy of the crack cocaine
epidemic and its ultimate radical impact on the culture as we know it.
The story follows numerous characters on a violent collision course,
including: Franklin Saint (Damson Idris), young street entrepreneur on a
quest for power; Gustavo "El Oso" Zapata (Sergio Peris-Mencheta), a
Mexican wrestler caught up in a power struggle within a crime family;
Teddy McDonald (Carter Hudson), a CIA operative running from a dark past
who begins an off-book operation to fund the Nicaraguan Contras and
Lucia Villanueva (Emily Rios), the self-possessed daughter of a Mexican
crime lord.
Created by John Singleton & Eric Amadio and Dave Andron, Snowfall is executive produced by Singleton, Andron, Thomas Schlamme, Amadio, Michael London and Trevor Engelson.
#SnowfallFX airs Wednesdays at 10/9c on @FXNetworks
