Top 10 Movie Drug Dealers

Drexl Spivey played by Gary Oldmanin True Romance (1993)
If there isnt already a band out there named Drexl Spivey then there really should be. Out of everyone in True Romances awesome ensemble cast it is Gary Oldmans faux-Rasta dealer/pimp Drexl Spivey that stands out as the most memorable character. Whats a Drexl? Clarence asks Alabama at one point in Quentin Tarantino and Tony Scotts endlessly quotable film, well, Drexl is Alabamas rather volatile pimp who has a nice sideline in suitcases full of coke. The Drexl character is practically an extended cameo for Oldman but he hams it up for all its worth as the scarred, dreadlocked and extremely psychopathic Spivey. Drexl Spivey is another incredible performance from one of Britains finest actors, who I personally think doesnt get enough credit. Its hard to believe that the man behind this abusive menace to society was also in the Harry Potter films.
