Short filmTranscript
00:00I really admire how you stood your ground for your friend, Malcolm X.
00:04He's my brother.
00:05Malcolm and Che could be speaking at the United Nations.
00:08It's just between me and you.
00:10I don't want nothing to happen to Malcolm.
00:11I would never betray your confidence.
00:13Chin Giganti put a hit out on me!
00:16Something he couldn't have done without your fucking approval!
00:18I told Feynman you tried to fuck me.
00:20I'm sorry.
00:22I got you into this mess.
00:24I'll get you out.
00:25One of those bosses tried to have me killed.
00:27We figure out who that was.
00:29Use it as leverage.
00:32Would you get to put the hit out on me, Gambino, Lucchese?
00:36What the fuck does that have to do with me?
00:39He knows, Tommy.
00:40He knows everything.
00:41You not only put a hit out on a boss's daughter,
00:45you also fucked his wife.
00:47Work gets out.
00:48We'll make her past breakfast tomorrow.
00:51I spoke with Sister Marnie, made her think I was on her side,
00:55and she pointed me to mosque number 25 in Newark,
00:59where Brother Clyde and Sister Sandra
01:01are crafting a plan to kill you, Malcolm.
01:05Why are you doing all this?
01:06Why risk your life?
01:07I wanted to redeem myself through deed and not word.
01:11You want me to convince Lillian to go away with her husband,
01:15and you won't tell me why?
01:17Archie's been doing some work for me,
01:19and there's some people that think
01:21that he might be talking to the feds.
01:23They could be right.
01:24Ellsworth, what have you gotten him into?
01:26Archie!
01:32Archie!
01:33Archie Gaines!
01:34Your classified informant!
01:35You left him wide-ass open!
01:37I have no idea who Archie Gaines is,
01:40and there's a much bigger game being played here.
01:43It's about the fate of this country.
01:45I should have smelled the rat sooner myself.
01:48What?
01:49You were the only one I told about Malcolm
01:52speaking with Che at the United Nations.
01:54Do you understand what your friend is doing?
01:57Partnering with Che Guevara,
01:58a man who wants to have communist revolutions
02:00all over the world.
02:01The buddy-buddy shit with this Malcolm character
02:03is gonna destroy your business,
02:05if not your life.
02:06If I get touched, Operation Mongoose goes public.
02:09I'm sorry, brother.
02:11I don't trust you anymore.
02:13This partnership is over.
02:18What's that?
02:29Ernesto Che Guevara, Cuba's Minister of Industry,
02:32arrived in New York this morning,
02:34set to address the United Nations General Assembly this week.
02:37It's rumored that he may be accompanied
02:40by black militant nationalist Malcolm El Shabazz,
02:43better known as Malcolm X.
02:46Their appearance has been deemed controversial
02:48and even dangerous as U.S. officials worry
02:51that these radicals aim to perpetuate
02:53the spread of communism
02:55from the Soviet Union and Cuba.
02:57You'd be a fool to make that speech.
02:59Then why is that?
03:03The CIA, the FBI.
03:04The NOI, the KKK.
03:06It's all part of the world, but for now, brother.
03:09I didn't work so hard to protect your ass
03:11to watch you blow me.
03:14You haven't touched your food.
03:18A man stops eating when his mind eats him.
03:23Talk to me, brother.
03:25I lost baby.
03:27I'm sorry to hear that.
03:29What was the trouble?
03:36I had to start dealing narcotics again.
03:38Things got...
03:40complicated.
03:41What about friends?
03:43It was laundry and money.
03:45Got caught in a crossfire.
03:51Bumpy, that's actually part of the reason
03:53that I asked you for here to breakfast.
03:55No, I'm sorry about baby.
03:58I'm sure your love for one another
04:01will overcome these obstacles.
04:05But I believe it's time for you to dismiss
04:07the security detail.
04:10No.
04:13Are you serious?
04:15We have United Nations security
04:17as we prepare to speak.
04:18It just doesn't work to have ex-felons
04:20part of the detail.
04:22I'm sorry.
04:26I'm forever grateful to you
04:28for protecting my family and me.
04:33But a man can't help anyone
04:36till his own house is in order.
04:43Don't let your home collapse around you.
04:45Rebuild.
04:48You haven't worked this hard
04:49for your own ass to blow it.
04:56It takes a lot of ingenuity
04:57to kill two men at once,
04:58but I think we've got the perfect solution.
05:02An M20?
05:04Where the fuck did you get this?
05:0623rd and 10th.
05:07Army surplus store.
05:09You bought this in a store?
05:10Well, that's the beauty.
05:11Any schmo off the street
05:12can walk in and buy one.
05:14CIA plausible deniability.
05:18Come with me.
05:24This is a demonstration model.
05:26A fifth as powerful
05:27as the one we'll repurpose.
05:28Now the shell
05:30is loaded with Composition B.
05:32If it hits,
05:33anything within 50 feet is charcoal.
05:36Che Guevara, Malcolm X,
05:38two commies,
05:40one stone.
05:41and go.
06:00Open up my window again.
06:02Open up my window again.
06:04I can end up calling my name, I can end up calling again, I swear to God things ain't gonna change, I swear to God things ain't gonna change, I keep a revolver with your name, I keep a revolver with your name, just in case.
06:22Lay on my back watching the ceiling fan, I had a dream to touch a kilogram, still at odds with the Irish mob, roast roast down Malcolm X Boulevard, Lord, these really out here praying on me, got the 40 on me and they stand on me, snow white mink like them Dutch shorts, run the books and let me show you how the numbers look, you can't be lucky like you Luciano, the kilos coming like they do pianos, the fat boy got the big body,
06:52I can end up calling my name, I can end up calling again, I swear to God things ain't gonna change, I swear to God things ain't gonna change, I keep a revolver with your name, I keep a revolver with your name, just in case.
07:22Matching up with your name!
07:52What the fuck are you doing here?
08:00I don't want to waste your time, so I'm going to make this simple.
08:04You take no action against Chay that would endanger Malcolm at the United Nations.
08:08He's my brother.
08:09He's my homeland.
08:12You understand?
08:15You want to protect your friend?
08:18Advise him not to show up.
08:22Excuse me.
08:24I got a date.
08:49You know what my father always said?
08:52The IRS is your friend.
08:55Your friend?
08:57I'd like to go down to Washington and personally blow up their fucking headquarters.
09:06You own all these trucking companies, right?
09:09Yeah.
09:10You registered the trucks out of state.
09:11To avoid New York tax.
09:13Why the fuck should I pay them anything?
09:15Exactly.
09:16You also own all these gas stations.
09:20I get it for more ways.
09:22Piece of the union, the trucking, the fuel that goes into the truck.
09:26But you're collecting four cents a gallon for the IRS and you're paying them.
09:30Why?
09:30Because it's four fucking cents.
09:33Shit like that's what got El Capone thrown in jail.
09:36I got a better idea.
09:38Oh yeah?
09:38Keep the taxes for a year, then go out of business and start new companies.
09:45You're for the gas stations?
09:47Exactly.
09:48Then legally they can't collect.
09:50You get to keep the four cents, which comes to about 1.8 million a year.
09:55A big, beautiful brain of yours.
10:03Mwah!
10:05See?
10:06The IRS is your friend.
10:09It's a philosophy I picked up from my father.
10:11Yeah, well.
10:13Maybe he can tell me what his next move is going to be.
10:17How do you mean?
10:21Well, he's going to come after me again.
10:22Yeah, he will.
10:27But how is anybody's guess?
10:39Joe Colombo is the devil himself.
10:43He framed me by making up lies that I try to kill my own stepdaughter.
10:48Heaven help us.
10:50I'm scared, father.
10:51I'm sorry, I don't know who else to turn to for help.
10:55You must trust in the Lord, Olympia.
10:57I want you to say ten Hail Marys.
10:59No!
11:00That is not what I'm talking about.
11:03I need your help.
11:05I need you to straighten out the situation.
11:12Meet me outside in five minutes.
11:14You need to know Joe Colombo is trying to destroy our family, Lou.
11:27Olympia, there is a plan for all of us in this life.
11:32We're given choices.
11:34We must choose to put our faith in God.
11:36God.
11:38God.
11:40God is the one who put us in this position in the first place, Lou.
11:44Do you understand he turned our stellar into a rat?
11:49He put her in the hands of the devil himself, Joe Colombo.
11:52And what can I do?
11:59Do I have to spell it out for you?
12:02Joe Colombo was using the lies to align the families against us.
12:06He wants to start a war.
12:07You're going to have to talk to the other bosses.
12:11You're going to have to tell them that your brother will not tolerate these lies.
12:17I don't think it's a good idea for me to get involved.
12:21There are lives at stake here, Lou.
12:23You have to look deep in your heart.
12:25And you have to ask yourself, what would Jesus do?
12:30What would Jesus do?
12:32Mr. Guevara, Mr. Johnson, thank you for coming to meet with us.
12:39Mr. Guevara, any friend of Malcolm's is a friend of mine.
12:44As for me.
12:46As I no longer have my men protected Malcolm, I come with a warning.
12:51I have credible information that CIA proxies are planning to assassinate you both this week at the U.N.
12:57The CIA has been throwing poisonous darts at Fidel since 59.
13:04Why would they hit the bullseye now?
13:06Because you're here on our shores.
13:09And later this week, they have you both in the same place at the same time.
13:14With the world watching, they'll stop at nothing.
13:16I know these men.
13:19Che's cause is our cause.
13:22His words are for the good of browning black people the world over.
13:26What good can a man do for blacks and browns if he's dead?
13:29What do you do when faced with an enemy?
13:33Do you run?
13:35Do you hide?
13:36I fight.
13:37I fight smart.
13:39You and Malcolm should not be in the same place at the same time.
13:41I should be serving you.
13:57It helps for me to keep busy.
14:00Keeps my mind occupied.
14:02Really, Lillian?
14:03My problems are nothing compared to yours.
14:05Eat.
14:06You look like you're wasting away.
14:07Both of our husbands involved in criminal activity.
14:13Still can't believe it.
14:16I will never forgive Bumpy for involving Archie in his affairs.
14:20I thought he knew better.
14:23My Archie.
14:26Now he's dead.
14:27Oh, Lillian, my heart breaks for you.
14:29If you don't mind my saying so, Mamie,
14:32I never understood how you could be with a criminal in the first place.
14:36A good Christian woman like you.
14:38Bumpy has many sides.
14:41You need to find yourself a good man.
14:43A decent man.
14:47A man like Archie.
14:49And when you find him, hold on tight.
14:51Never let him out of your sight.
14:55Because maybe one day he'll be gone.
14:59Oh, Lillian.
15:02Take my advice.
15:04Stay away from Bumpy Johnson.
15:08And never look back.
15:14Everything in your autobiography is in your own words.
15:18I don't know how you did it.
15:19It got me to open up about my past.
15:24My mother.
15:26My days as a hustler.
15:28Well, I have to admit, it wasn't easy gaining your trust.
15:31You've only gained 75% of my trust.
15:33That's better than where I started.
15:35What was it, 20%?
15:36Was it that high?
15:42There's something, Alex, that I've left out of my autobiography.
15:46Oh, yeah?
15:47I've been writing about it in my diary.
15:50I'm thinking about turning it into another book.
15:54But I'm afraid my time may be running out.
16:00I may not write that book.
16:01I may not live to see this one published.
16:02I don't like hearing you say that.
16:04You know, I've always been keen on not wasting time.
16:06And I don't want to waste yours.
16:08There's another chapter we must write.
16:11About what?
16:12Bumpy Johnson.
16:13The gangster.
16:14What about him?
16:16I want to explain our friendship.
16:19And why white society should fear him even more than they fear me.
16:23Thanks for agreeing to meet me.
16:40I agreed to talk.
16:42This isn't a date.
16:42I know.
16:47It's for Lillian.
16:53I'll be sure she gets them.
16:54I wish this could have all been avoided.
16:59Yes.
17:00If he'd never met you.
17:02I tried to help Archie.
17:04This is not my fault.
17:05It's the same old story.
17:07I've heard it before.
17:10Anyway, I didn't come here to talk about that or us.
17:13No?
17:13So.
17:15I want to ask you for a favor.
17:18A favor?
17:19You have your nerve.
17:21Malcolm.
17:23What about Malcolm?
17:24He's in serious danger.
17:25I want you to talk to Powell.
17:26See if you can put federal agents on him.
17:28Trustworthy ones.
17:30Is this really about Malcolm?
17:33That why you're here?
17:34Well, I plead to have you come back home, but I know that's not going to work.
17:39So, yeah, I'm here for Malcolm.
17:44Adam's in Washington.
17:46I'll have to talk to Roy Wingate.
17:50Thanks.
17:50Is there anything else?
17:55Yeah.
17:59I love you.
18:03Come home.
18:04Gentlemen, I want to thank you all again.
18:34for agreeing to meet with me.
18:36I'm very honored to be here.
18:38Well, the honorers really are as their father, Lewis.
18:44I haven't been to church for a long time.
18:46Your being here makes me feel good.
18:49How come we help you, father?
18:51As God is my witness,
18:53the concerns I'm about to convey are not my own.
18:56They come from my brother, Vincent,
18:57who you know remains in prison.
18:59If Chin has a beef, let us hear it.
19:03My brother seems to think that there are rumors about his wife and daughter
19:09that are being spread for the purpose of creating division,
19:11and he's concerned that this could lead to violence.
19:14Naturally, he wishes to prevent this.
19:18Naturally, father.
19:19My brother is of the belief that you, Joe Colombo,
19:26have falsely accused his wife, Olympia,
19:29of trying to kill his daughter, Stella.
19:33Father, I was entrusted with protecting Chin's daughter
19:36from men who tried to kill her.
19:37Unfortunately, to this day, we still don't know who that was.
19:44I've never said a word about Chin's wife or daughter to anyone.
19:51Gentlemen, I...
19:52I don't mean to cause problems.
19:55My message is simple.
19:58Stop these rumors.
20:02And keep my brother in your prayers,
20:05that he may be released soon.
20:06I'm sure he will.
20:08Is there anything else, father?
20:11There is one more piece of information
20:13that I've been asked to convey.
20:17My brother has lost all faith in Joe Colombo
20:19to look after his affairs in Harlem.
20:21He wishes it to be known to all of you
20:23that he and Joe Colombo no longer have any agreement.
20:29What?
20:30I hope my words have helped to lower the temperature between you all
20:34and that we will avoid any unnecessary violence.
20:38Good day.
20:46That mother...
20:47What kind of fucking priest is this?
20:51He just threw a hand grenade into the commission!
20:53It can't have been his idea.
20:55My guess is that Olympia put him up to it.
20:57She's probably terrified my father's going to find out and kill her.
21:01It's safer for her if he's at war with you and the others.
21:04Well, you recommend we don't kill Olympia?
21:07No.
21:09The man my father trusts most in this world is Uncle Louis.
21:13The trick's to convince him that Olympia's lying.
21:16Oh!
21:16How do I do that?
21:19I'm not sure.
21:23I gotta nip this in the bud.
21:27The other families may side with Chin in a war
21:30even though they know I'm telling the truth!
21:33What are you gonna do?
21:35Never killed a priest before.
21:37First time for everything.
21:39Joe, please don't do that.
21:41What if I don't have a choice?
21:42Uncle Louis is the one member of my family
21:44who's always been good to me.
21:45Just let me speak with him.
21:49Please.
22:00Yes.
22:01Yes, sir.
22:01I understand.
22:02But...
22:03Okay.
22:06Thank you for your time.
22:10Police commissioner refuses to put any men on Malcolm.
22:13Adam called him personally from Washington.
22:14He also called the mayor
22:15and assistant district attorney Pike.
22:17He's very concerned, as you are,
22:19but there's pushback from law enforcement.
22:20Of course.
22:21Your usual excuse is not enough manpower.
22:23And with Che being in town,
22:25they're using extra men to guard against
22:27Cuban agitators and communist spies.
22:29Malcolm's the one they should be protecting.
22:31After his trip from Africa,
22:32he's more influential than ever and more feared.
22:35Because he's helping to fight for a more just world?
22:38Why is that so scary?
22:40Maybe people are afraid of what they don't know.
22:41I mean, we don't know what a world with equality would look like, do we?
22:46No.
22:51You have to convince Malcolm to stay away from the U.N.
22:53He's been breaking his back,
22:55struggling to put a coalition together for months.
22:58He won't get another opportunity like this.
23:00Talking about the NYPD, the FBI, the CIA,
23:05all puppet masters.
23:07How many chances will he get to take the world stage
23:09with someone like Che?
23:11Tell me about the guards.
23:13He peeled me off.
23:14Who's on him now?
23:15He's got about 30 followers who were food of Islam,
23:18so they have some background.
23:19And the United Nations is providing security for the event.
23:21You gotta talk him out of this.
23:24He's a sitting duck.
23:26It's almost like he knows he's gonna die.
23:29He's accepted it.
23:34He's tired of running.
23:36There's no way anybody's gonna talk him out of it.
23:38Not you, not me, not Betty, not anybody.
23:41And for your safety,
23:43I can't condone you sitting by his side.
23:46What you do or don't condone
23:47stopped mattering to me a long time ago.
23:49But I'll keep my eyes open,
23:52my ears to the ground like you taught me.
23:5620 blocks around the U.N.
23:57will be completely shut down.
23:59Pedestrian checkpoints at every crossing,
24:01NYPD in full engagement,
24:03coordinating 150 motorcades.
24:05What about the Feds?
24:07The Feds will have 40 first-ranked USMC snipers
24:09on every building top.
24:10What's this?
24:12Staging a protest as a distraction.
24:15That's where they'll be expecting trouble,
24:16the protesters.
24:17You got mostly, uh,
24:19senoritas from whatever's left of Operation 40
24:21in Union City.
24:23Fantastic.
24:24Yeah.
24:25Look.
24:29East River.
24:30Zones 1 and 2 completely shut down.
24:33No commercial vessels from 35th to 59th.
24:36So how the fuck are we gonna kill
24:38these two commie bastards?
24:40Queens?
24:44Long Island City.
24:48So we gotta figure out
24:49how these motherfuckers
24:50are gonna head Malcolm and Jay
24:52with all the security
24:53at the United Nations.
24:55Rifle hits if they're professional.
24:57Work off triangulation of crossfire.
24:59You can't do that with two targets.
25:01First ones down, all hell breaks loose.
25:04The odds of hitting the second
25:05go down to zero.
25:08Pedro, go now.
25:09Stick out battles.
25:10I wanna know who's coming and who's going, all right?
25:12You got it, bump.
25:15NYPD and the Feds pulling out all the stops.
25:17Shit's sealed tight.
25:18They're gonna have to get real creative.
25:21Yeah, they will.
25:21Don't doubt that.
25:23Why don't I should call my boy Crawford
25:24in the 13th precinct?
25:26See if he's heard anything around the campfire?
25:27Later.
25:28First, I want you to send a message
25:30to Wild Bill Harvey
25:31and do a little recon.
25:35You all right?
25:36Yeah.
25:39Anything you want to draw about?
25:45You're not a praying man.
25:47I'm not a praying man.
25:50But before you go to bed tonight,
25:52let's hit our knees for Malcolm.
25:58A man like Bumpy Johnson
25:59is more than just a criminal.
26:02He's a hyper-intelligent, fearless, self-made man
26:06who knows who and what he is
26:07and takes pride in being an unstoppable force.
26:12He's forged in the fires of adversity
26:13and willed himself to be a king
26:16in a white man's jungle.
26:18A man like that can change the world.
26:20And has Bumpy done so?
26:23Not yet.
26:25It's a project I'm still working on.
26:28Look, Malcolm.
26:33Maybe writing this chapter isn't such a good idea.
26:38I need future generations to understand
26:40why I'm friends with a man
26:41who on the surface
26:42is morally against everything I believe in.
26:47Society judges men like Bumpy
26:48because they're scared of him
26:51just like they're scared of me.
26:52You have your faith.
26:53How does a man like Bumpy transform like you?
26:58By believing in something bigger than himself.
27:00And what is that?
27:01A vision
27:02of a future
27:06that's so real you can taste it.
27:09A world where we are honored and equal,
27:13where past hurts no longer haunt us.
27:15Where a man like Bumpy Johnson
27:19could apply his considerable intelligence
27:24to pursuits
27:26that have nothing to do with narcotics.
27:29When a black gangster gains political and social conscience
27:32and makes the so-called ghetto his homeland
27:36and treats her
27:38with the respect a true homeland deserves,
27:42white America will tremble.
27:44Hmm.
27:45May God be with you.
28:04Father Louis,
28:05why would you try to start a war against Joe Colombo?
28:07Stella?
28:09Well, what are you doing here?
28:11I'm here to tell you that Olympia's full of shit.
28:13She's lying to you.
28:15She got Tommy Lucchese
28:16to send one of his men to kill me.
28:19But I managed to kill him first.
28:21Have you been taking your medication?
28:23I'm not crazy, Uncle Louis.
28:25You know how vengeful Olympia can be.
28:30No.
28:31I don't believe that.
28:33And why, in God's name,
28:35are you siding with Joe Colombo
28:37over your own family?
28:38I'm siding with truth.
28:40I thought as a man of God,
28:41you would too.
28:43Olympia
28:45is a good and kind woman.
28:47She would never be a part of a murderer.
28:49Why are you doing this?
28:51Even after you had Vincent arrested,
28:53he forgave you.
28:54He's your family.
28:55He's stuck by you.
28:56Why can't you do the same?
28:58It's a dangerous game
28:59you're playing with Olympia.
29:01I'm actually trying to help you.
29:04Joe Colombo would just as soon whack you.
29:06devil spawn.
29:10These are the words of Beelzebub himself.
29:12He's clearly taken possession of your soul.
29:14You get out of my confessional
29:16and don't come back
29:17until you are ready to repent.
29:18I'll say ten Hail Marys for you, Uncle.
29:24You're gonna need them.
29:25God damn it, Jake!
29:36Way back when,
29:38when I used to hang wet man
29:39a real top shot up.
29:40I like mine a real pistol popper.
29:42Still I'm digging on fist till vodka.
29:43Too risky, I'm really important.
29:45I call and it really gets sorted.
29:47When it comes out to it, don't care
29:48if CCTV had a recording.
29:50Passport looking for him.
29:52We just a spit on the block, I brought him.
29:53Good evening.
29:54Go on ahead.
30:10Thanks for seeing me.
30:11Oh, I hear you got something good.
30:13Lay it on me.
30:14Well, as you know,
30:16my boss has been protecting Malcolm X.
30:19Yeah, that's, uh, old news.
30:21Well, I'm here to tell you
30:22that you have an ally.
30:24An ally?
30:25Was that so?
30:26Yeah, because I hate
30:27that big-mouthed motherfucker
30:28more than you do.
30:30Why is that?
30:31What some of my people
30:32fail to understand is
30:34America haters,
30:36like Malcolm X,
30:37they don't help the cause,
30:39they fuck it up.
30:40So I love to see
30:41that motherfucker smoked.
30:44Yeah.
30:45You know, people tend to forget
30:46that this is a great fucking country.
30:47You're damn right.
30:49I fought for this country.
30:50Yeah, I know.
30:52Delbert C. Chance,
30:53503rd All Black Field Artillery Battalion,
30:562nd Infantry.
30:57Silver Star.
30:59That's me.
31:00Do you know why the Civil Rights Act passed?
31:07Why Negroes are now
31:09getting elected to office?
31:11Because guys like me
31:12eliminate impediments.
31:15Impediments?
31:16Well, to democracy.
31:18I keep the train tracks
31:19clear of impediments,
31:20like Malcolm X,
31:22who just want to
31:22blow shit up
31:24instead of working
31:25to improve the Negro situation
31:27over time.
31:27I keep the train
31:28moving forward.
31:30So how can I help you
31:30clear the tracks?
31:32Well, mostly by cutting the shit.
31:35Whether you actually
31:36hate Malcolm X or not,
31:37we both know you
31:38are more loyal
31:38to Pompey Johnson
31:39than anyone
31:40or anything.
31:42So as I respect
31:44your service to this country,
31:45I will afford you
31:4630 seconds
31:46to say what you came here
31:47to say
31:48and then get the fuck out.
31:49Bumpy wanted me
32:02to remind you
32:03in case you forgot
32:04that he still got
32:06this little bedtime story
32:08called Operation Mongoose.
32:09You tell Pompey Johnson
32:13that Malcolm X's UN speech
32:16is a greater threat
32:17to America
32:18than any fringe article
32:19he might
32:20cook up
32:22about Fidel Castro.
32:25Pompey should tell his friend
32:26to keep his fat mouth shut
32:27about revolution
32:28in the streets of America
32:29if he wants to keep Betty
32:31from becoming a widow.
32:34Thank you for your time.
32:35Bumpy.
32:55Hey, how'd it go?
32:58That Wild Bill
32:59is one fat, crazy fucker.
33:01He don't fuck around at all.
33:02But I got a good look
33:04at things
33:04just like you want it.
33:06I saw an artillery box
33:07in his office
33:07with the word
33:08stovepipe printed on it.
33:11Stovepipe?
33:11Yeah.
33:12In the war,
33:13that's what we used to call
33:14M-20 rocket launchers.
33:16Bunker busters
33:17used for blasting tanks
33:18from up to 1,100 feet.
33:20Long-range weapon.
33:21East River's only about
33:22900 feet from the UN.
33:24They could launch that thing
33:25anywhere from up
33:26and down the shoreline
33:28off 50th Avenue
33:29at Hunter's Point
33:30all the way up
33:31to the Pepsi-Cola sign.
33:33Crazy.
33:34Bit smart.
33:36They could avoid
33:36all of the cops
33:37on the UN perimeter.
33:38On my way in,
33:39I saw a fruit truck.
33:41Now, that fruit car tactic,
33:43that shit goes way
33:44back to the Civil War.
33:45They had weapons
33:47in those things.
33:48Right.
33:49What you want to do?
33:50Tomorrow,
33:51before the speech,
33:52you and Pettigrew
33:53are going to cover
33:53from Hunter's Point
33:54all the way
33:54to the Pepsi side.
33:56See if you can find
33:56that fruit truck.
33:57All right.
33:59What about you?
33:59I'm going to have to
34:04cancel Malcolm's schedule
34:05for the day.
34:05Okay.
34:05I'm sorry, Lillian.
34:31Am I interrupting?
34:32It's okay, Mamie.
34:33Mr. Gilbert was just leaving.
34:36You must be Mrs. Johnson.
34:38I've heard so much about you.
34:41You have my agency's card.
34:42We'll be in touch.
34:50What was that man?
34:51He's one of the best
34:52private detectives
34:53in the country.
34:54I've just hired him
34:55to find Archie's murderer.
34:57What are you talking about?
34:58I can't trust the police.
35:01They're doing nothing.
35:02Between you and me,
35:04we can bring
35:04whoever is guilty to jail.
35:06But Archie was involved
35:07in my husband's businesses.
35:09That's our first clue.
35:10But a private detective
35:11could put Bumpy in jeopardy.
35:13So what?
35:14You fight for social justice,
35:16don't you?
35:17How about regular justice?
35:19Lillian,
35:20you're going to put
35:21my husband in danger.
35:22Your husband can burn
35:23in hell for all I care.
35:25And you should feel
35:26the same way.
35:27Now Archie was up to his neck
35:28in criminal activities
35:29just like Ellsworth.
35:31He didn't deserve
35:31to die for it.
35:32Bumpy tried to save him.
35:34You're on his side.
35:35You bet your ass I am.
35:38Call that man off.
35:39I will not.
35:42Call that man off.
35:44I will not.
35:47Now I know you don't want me
35:49to rip that wig off your head
35:50and parade you down St. Nick.
35:54Dial.
35:57Do you know me?
36:20What the fuck?
36:22What the fuck?
36:23Police keep on watching us.
36:24We too far,
36:25they can't rock with us.
36:26So they gon' need binoculars.
36:27I gotta lay low.
36:29But that's how my day go.
36:30Yeah, I got a Spanish mommy
36:32with some pesos.
36:32I got a Haitian killer
36:33with a trickle.
36:34I hear them saying
36:35like they got a record deal.
36:36You got no homies
36:37that lots of squirrels.
36:38I gave them droids
36:39to sex appeal.
36:40I'm really out there.
36:40I got a hot split
36:41from my hot hat.
36:42Wolf off the top
36:43was I'm dropped in.
36:44Gorgeous.
36:45They don't got this shit
36:45I'm wearing no photo.
36:46I say it once
36:47and you know it's the morning.
36:48I told him
36:53he shouldn't have
36:54talked to you that way.
36:55If it wasn't for you
36:56he'd be dead.
36:57If he knows what's good for him
36:58he'll mind his business.
37:00Let's go.
37:02The parts are heavy.
37:03Needs to be assembled on site.
37:05Axes, shield plate,
37:07base skis, launch tube.
37:08We'll load it
37:09in the back of a fruit truck
37:10for cover.
37:11Have a bunch of crates
37:13of apples and bananas
37:13in the back.
37:14After the hit,
37:15going over the bridge.
37:18You'll position
37:19on the crest
37:20right here
37:21at the bank
37:21at the Atom Metal Supply Plant
37:23on 50th Avenue.
37:25Now we've arranged
37:26for you to use
37:26their garage as cover
37:27if need be.
37:28The truck will leave
37:29from here?
37:30Yeah.
37:30But you're going to be
37:31in place
37:32and ready to go
37:33by the time
37:33Shea arrives
37:34at the United Nations.
37:36And the coordinates?
37:3740.748
37:38and 73.968.
37:41Very good.
37:42Your target
37:43is the third floor
37:44of the General Assembly
37:44where Shea and Malcolm
37:45will speak.
37:46Make your shot.
37:47You hop in the truck
37:48and you deliver
37:48whatever bullshit fruit
37:49we left you.
37:52All right.
37:54Go take a peek
37:54and make sure
37:55the launcher's
37:55properly hidden.
37:56Then go kill
37:57these bastards.
37:58Copy that.
37:59Give them hell.
38:01Those are great guys
38:02you have.
38:04That's a shame.
38:06Easy to clean?
38:08Clean?
38:10No family,
38:11records,
38:11permanent address,
38:12right?
38:12My understanding
38:14was they would
38:15only be eliminated
38:16in case of an arrest.
38:18Succeed or fail,
38:19we're never going
38:19to leave them alive,
38:20Jose.
38:20I thought you understood
38:21that.
38:22We're not playing
38:23Monopoly here.
38:23What is this?
38:46What is this,
38:47Bumpy?
38:47I'm sorry, Malcolm.
38:48You're not going to the U.N.
38:50I'm afraid I am.
38:51I can't allow it.
38:53This is the single
38:53most important opportunity
38:55I've ever had
38:55to build a coalition
38:56for our people.
38:57Boy, it's a death trap.
38:59Have you lost your mind?
39:00Brother Malcolm,
39:01if Brother Johnson
39:02has what he deems
39:03as credible information,
39:05I'm tired of running scared.
39:06I made a vow
39:07to protect you
39:07and that's what I'm doing.
39:15Man, I wish this car
39:16could go faster.
39:17Yeah, we just need
39:18to get by the water.
39:19Stay by the water,
39:20okay?
39:21As the world watches,
39:22Che Guevara is minutes away
39:24from taking the stage
39:25at the United Nations
39:26in New York City
39:27while thousands
39:28of concerned citizens
39:29take to the streets
39:30to protest his message
39:32of revolutionary communism
39:33as a threat
39:34to our democracy.
39:35Also slated to speak
39:37is Malcolm X
39:38who has joined forces
39:39with Che
39:39in what promises
39:40to be another incitement
39:42to violence
39:42on the streets
39:43of urban centers
39:44throughout our nation.
39:46How much of protection
39:47dismissed?
39:48now please
39:50move out of the way
39:52so we can go.
39:59You gonna shoot me, brother?
40:00I'll shoot you
40:00in the goddamn foot
40:01if I have to.
40:02You're not going anywhere.
40:05Don't make me do it.
40:09Security is tight
40:11as Che Guevara
40:12makes his way
40:12through a hall
40:13packed with diplomats
40:14and reporters.
40:16He and the rest
40:16of the Cuban delegation
40:17take their place
40:18in the General Assembly.
40:20However,
40:21still no sign
40:22of Malcolm X.
40:26I won't forgive you
40:27for this.
40:31Mr. Guevara
40:32takes his place
40:32at the podium
40:33of the General Assembly.
40:34Let's listen in.
40:35I welcome this opportunity
40:37to speak to the nations
40:38of the world.
40:39Many of whom fear me
40:40and my people,
40:42the Cuban people.
40:43But why do they fear us?
40:47Because we are willing
40:48to die
40:49for what we believe in.
40:51Homeland
40:51or death.
40:53That is the question
40:54all Cuban people
40:56should ask
40:56in the face
40:57of the aggressor
40:58who see
40:59our freedom
41:00as a danger
41:01to theirs.
41:03Why would
41:03any revolutionary
41:04die for their cause?
41:06Because their cause
41:08is just.
41:10And although
41:10we don't have
41:11the power
41:11of a United States,
41:13the fact
41:13that we are
41:14willing to die
41:15makes us
41:16more powerful.
41:18I will never quit.
41:19I never
41:20give it to
41:21all that questions.
41:21Okay, we got it, we got it.
41:22If you tremble
41:23with indignation
41:24at every injustice,
41:26then you are
41:27a comrade of mine
41:28to all revolutionaries
41:29around the world.
41:31If you want
41:31justice
41:32and equality
41:34as yourselves,
41:35are you willing
41:37to die?
41:39Homeland
41:40or death,
41:42that is the choice.
41:44And whatever
41:44your cause is,
41:45civil rights,
41:46economic freedom
41:47or racial equality,
41:49never surrender.
41:52I have a wish.
41:53It is a fear
41:53as well.
41:54It's over there.
41:55my end
41:55will be
41:56by the end
41:56in the battle
41:57revolutionaries.
41:57Oh, is that it?
41:58With my rightness.
42:00And each one of us
42:00alone
42:01is worth
42:02nothing.
42:03And so we fight.
42:05We fight
42:05for our independence.
42:08And hear
42:09the world
42:09and cry
42:10of battle.
42:15Patria
42:15or death
42:16we will win.
42:18We will win.
42:21It seems
42:22your precautions
42:23were unnecessary
42:24after all.
42:28I suggest
42:29you take
42:29your men
42:30and leave.
42:32For good.
42:36Have it your way, Malcolm.
42:40Let's go, fellas.
42:45Amy.
43:02Amy.
43:15I can't live without you.
43:27It is as simple as that.
43:31I've been so lost.
43:38So lost.
43:45I'm glad you got me to write this chapter on Bumpy Johnson.
43:54I understand your thesis.
43:57That a society that denies the opportunity to the black man
44:01can only expect him to become an outlaw.
44:04And as legitimate opportunities grow with our civil rights movement,
44:08the black gangster will have to shift his unique skills
44:12to larger social purposes
44:14than simply his own enrichment.
44:16No, Alex.
44:21I was wrong.
44:24What are you doing?
44:26Maybe a man like Bumpy Johnson can't change.
