Скачать или смотреть The Day Bumpy Johnson Returned from Alcatraz — And Took Harlem Back

In June 1963, Ellsworth “Bumpy” Johnson walked out of Alcatraz after eleven long years — and Harlem was never the same again. Most believed prison had broken him. They were wrong.

This true crime documentary tells the untold story of the night Bumpy Johnson returned to Harlem, confronted betrayal, and reclaimed power without firing a single shot. Inside smoky nightclubs and tense backroom meetings, one man reminded everyone who really ruled the streets.

Told in a slow-burning, cinematic style, this film explores loyalty, respect, and fear in 1960s Harlem — and why Bumpy Johnson was never just a gangster, but a symbol of authority in a divided city.

If you’re fascinated by true crime, mafia history, and real stories behind the Godfather of Harlem, this is a story you’ve never heard told this way before.
