In Kings of Coke: New Blood and The Legend Of Rory Shayne, filmmakers Nick Rose and Lewis Cohen return to a world they've spent years exploring: Montreal's criminal underbelly. The two latest installments in the Kings of Coke universe examine vastly different corners of that history. New Blood traces the rise of Gerry Matticks and the violent systems that shaped the city's biker war, while The Legend of Rory Shayne follows one of Montreal's most notorious bank robbers through a story that takes unexpected turns.
Now streaming on Crave, Kings of Coke: New Blood and The Legend Of Rory Shayne explore two very different chapters of Montreal's criminal history. We spoke with Rose and Cohen about the city's enduring mythology, the challenge of separating legend from reality, and why these stories continue to shape how Montreal sees itself.
