 Blow is the true story of George
Jung (Johnny Depp) who is currently serving a 15 year sentence.
Jung worked for reputed drug kingpin Carlos Escobar, and is accused
of single-handedly importing cocaine into the US in the 1970's.
Jung's rise and fall coincides with the switch from pot to cocaine
as the drug of choice among the rich and famous. Based upon the
book "Blow: How a Small-Town Boy Made $100 Million with
the Medellin Cocaine Cartel and Lost it All" by Bruce Porter.
