In the 15th century, Richard, Duke of Gloucester, aided by his club-footed executioner Mord, eliminates those ahead of him in succession to the throne, then occupied by his brother, King Edward IV of England.

VIBE

A grim and brooding historical drama, this film feels like a descent into dark ambition. The steady pacing builds a sense of inevitable doom, underscored by the stark black and white visuals and the chilling pursuit of power.
