The Rise of the Krays
Available on Pluto TV, Prime Video, Paramount+
The early years of the most notorious criminals Britain has ever produced are portrayed in visceral brutality in 'Rise of the Krays'. London, 1961: Ronnie and Reggie Kray begin a reign of terror that would endure and define London’s East End for years to come. From protection rackets to members' clubs, from brutal street brawls, arson via blackmail extending all the way up to the Cabinet Office, the Krays rained red on anyone who crossed them. 'Rise of the Krays' pulls no punches in its bid to portray the true horror of this violent pair. Where other cameras pull away, 'Rise of the Krays' maintains its nerve. The question is, can you?
