Plots(1)
It's a tense urban crime drama, a slick action movie with memorable quips, a scathing indictment of the war on drugs, and a stark look at the moral ambiguities of being a black cop in America. DEEP COVER, Bill Duke's second feature, stars Laurence Fishburne as a cop working undercover to bust a drug ring. He enjoys a lavish lifestyle and eventually kills to protect his turf and to get closer to the major suppliers. Will he enforce the laws of a corrupt government or live outside the law as a drug kingpin? (official distributor synopsis)
