established Melbourne’s gangland thugs as celebrities.
Cox and Denning were once Australian Public Enemies Number
One and Two. Both were handsome, charismatic bandits who
refused to bow to authority. Both were classified as ‘intractable’
in prison, and both escaped. Cox was the only man to escape

from Katingal, Australia’s only ‘escape-proof ’ jail. Soon after he
broke out, he tried to break in again and rescue his mates.
Their story is one of violence and crime, but it is also about the
unimaginable horrors that young boys faced when condemned
to ‘institutions’ in the 1960s, and the terrible conditions in
Australian jails in the 70s and 80s. These were the hells where
