Lansky

The film tells the story of Meyer Lansky, a legendary organized crime boss, as he reflects on his life while on the run from US authorities. Born in the Jewish ghettos of early 20th-century America, Lansky's intelligence and ambition propelled him into a life of crime, which he rationalized as just another form of American entrepreneurship. The movie focuses on the personal relationships and personalities that shaped his life, rather than the violent acts or corrupt dealings that often accompanied his rise to power.
