Does Anyone Know This Movie?

Question by Rebecca: Does anyone know this movie?
I can’t think of the title but it’s about a guy who grows up in the suburbs, moves to California and becomes a drug lord. He dates a stewardess who helps him smuggle drugs. Then he has a daughter. In the end he gets caught by his friends and he ends up in jail. He imagines his daughter visiting him but she never really did. It’s supposedly based on a true story or something like that. Anyone know?
Thank you Melissa you’re right!!! I’ll give you the points when it lets me. 🙂
