first look: american gangster

"American Gangster"
dir., Ridley Scott
2007

I know I'm not supposed to like a Ridley Scott film ("Blade Runner" being the exception), but some things about this trailer make me want to see this:
1. This looks somewhat inspired by "Black Caesar", one of my favorite blaxploitation films.
2. A Jay-Z song used in a period film. Genius.
3. Chiwetel Ejiofor.
