The story of the world's most famous gangster couple seems to be a glamorous one. They are young. They're in love. They rob banks. A deeper look reveals an unbelievably hard life of poverty and misery that brought this gang together. Their story is a struggle against all odds during the Great Depression. Anger is the driving force and violence is their tool.
