Starz!, 9:00 p.m. ET

 
This 2001 film stars Johnny Depp as real-life drug dealer George Jung, whose rise to the top of the cocaine trade in the U.S. in the 1970s. But it’s Penelope Cruz, as his volatile girlfriend, who manages the rare feat of stealing scenes from Depp. She plays a much less likable role here than in most of her films, and she seems to relish the opportunity, sizzling and snarling as Depp’s Jung gets more and more connected, and more and more reckless.
