'Blow' (2001) is based on true story movie, about American kid, a small town boy George Jung (Johnny Depp), who became the main player of cocaine smuggling into United States of 1970s and 80s, from Colombia, dealing with Medelline drug cartel, commanded by Pablo Escobar, known as the most notorious colombian druglord of all times. George (Johnyy Depp) falls in love with colombian beauty Mirtha (Penelope Cruz), and later daughter is born who becomes as the most important in George's life, but this cognition comes too late as he is imprisoned for 60 yeasr, after his former partners betray him and let him into hands of authorities.
I hold a view on this movie as one of the greatest 'based on true story' masterpiece of all times. Movie starts depicting of how everything started, continues with all the 'high times' scenes and finsihes on very sad and glum note when George is betrayed by his friends and partners, his wife leaves him to his fate and brings his daughter with. He is left completely alone and imprisoned. Until now, his daughter Christin has never visited her father at prison.
The movie is very imressive, emotional with high-quality actors' play, basing on true-life story. Highly recommend to see it.
