Episode 2: Lucky

The system of organized crime that was to dominate the 20th century Criminal landscape was consciously created by two extraordinary men: Meyer Lansky and Lucky Luciano. These men would not only grow from the slums of New York to enrich themselves through crime, but also bring decades of order to the anarchic criminal world. While a young Meyer was clearly torn between educated respectability and criminal profit, his close friend and crimey Lucky Luciano was different. Lucky was always going to be a gangster.
