The Cotton ClubIcon_movClass_M

1984, 123 minutes, Rated M

Where deals were made, lives were traded and the legends of jazz lit up the night.

Welcome to the Cotton Club, where crime lords rub shoulders with the rich and famous. Director Francis Ford Coppola (The Godfather Trilogy) and co-writers William Kennedy and Mario Puzo create a panorama of love, crime and entertainment centred on the legendary Harlem Nightclub owned by Owney Madden (Bob Hoskins - Enemy At The Gates). Cornet player Dixie Dwyer (Richard Gere - Chicago) gets a job in Harlem's famous Cotton Club, while his brother gets a job as Dutch Schultz's (James Remar - Blade: Trinity) bodyguard. Dwyer falls for Schultz's mistress Vera Cicero (Diane Lane - Unfaithful), and finds himself caught in the middle of mobster rivalry in this stylish gangster film.
