The Cotton Club (1984)

Poster for The Cotton Club

It was the jazz age. It was an era of elegance and violence. The action was gambling. The stakes were life and death.

Harlem's legendary Cotton Club becomes a hotbed of passion and violence as the lives and loves of entertainers and gangsters collide.
