Gang War

(1940)

63 min.

Directed by Leo C. Popkin

Cast:  Ralph Cooper, Gladys Snyder

Black Cast Crime Drama

An ambitious gangster fights his way towards the top of the Harlem underworld by taking over what appears to have been a lucrative business in jukeboxes.  It’s a pretty good gangster movie and a chance to see life in Harlem prior to WWII, and quite probably, one of the few chances to see these entertainers on film.
