The 1989 film, the krays still astounds me today. after seeing it 3 years ago on tele, it is still one of the best britsh films i have seen for years. it deffinatly levels up with, Long Good Friday and A clockwork orange in its Violent Content, but still excellent.
the story follows the lives of the Kray Twins played wonderfully by the Kemp brothers - known for Spandaul Ballet and Martin in Eastenders. Gary Kemp gives an excellent insight into Ronnie, Into his violent behaviour, his short fuseness and his homosexuality. One interesting scene involves ronnie, after winning a boxing match, stareing at his brother to come and fight him. naturally it turns into a blood bath as everything seems to in this film! the film then continues allthe way to there arrest in 1969, leaving the film on the deaths of the 2 people the krays Murder. the film includes very bloody scenes such as a snooker hall fight in which ronnie puts a sword thru some one hand!!!!
its a must have video for gangster fans
