#LEGEND TOM HARDY FULL MOVIE PULOCKER TRIAL#
A final, noir-ish shot of Reggie walking along an east London canal at night, as Carter Burwell’s mournful score kicks in, saves the boys the indignity of a trial but leaves us in no doubt that the party will be over when the sun comes up. It imagines them as the American-style gangsters they aspired to be and shows how and why that dream failed. Dear friends To watch this movie, click \ 'Watch Film \' and watch the movie with the highest quality. From Locke to Batman villain Bane, through to the iconic Max. Watch: The first glimpse of Tom Hardy playing both Reggie and Ronnie Kray. ‘Legend’ plays fast and loose – often amusingly – with the laddish mythology of the Krays. Hardy then went on to star in massive movies including The Dark Knight Rises, Inception, Legend and Dunkirk. Tom Hardy has blessed us with several landmark roles in the past decade (plus an unforgettable cBeebies Bedtime Story, of course). Tom Hardy doubles up as the Kray Twins in Legend trailer. It’s a smart move which stresses that, for all its true-life origins, this is a story we’re watching, not a reconstruction or creaky biopic. Frances narrates, quietly dampening the machismo. As the brothers rise through the criminal underworld. Confidential, Mystic River) comes the true story of Londons most notorious gangsters, twins Reggie and Ronnie Kray (Tom Hardy, Mad Max: Fury Road). Hardy makes us laugh, too, revelling in the Krays’ more grotesque, ridiculous behaviour.Īlmost as intriguing as having Hardy play both twins is that Helgeland frames ‘Legend’ as a doomed love story, near enough opening his film with Reggie meeting Frances and ending soon after the failure of their marriage.

Contradictions like this suit the facts: Ronnie was a murderous psychopath and openly gay the twins were as thick as thieves but regularly on the verge of killing each other. Early on, there’s a virtuoso one-take shot through a club owned by the brothers, as Reggie takes his fragile girlfriend Frances (Emily Browning) on a dinner date, slipping off to deal with some bloody business in a side room. The film is written and directed by an American, Brian Helgeland, who wrote ‘LA Confidential’ and ‘Mystic River’, and he makes the Krays’ tale glamorous while also sticking a pin in that glamour it’s a delicate trick. Each twin is totally distinct: Ronnie operates on a knife-edge of paranoia and delusion (he was schizophrenic) Reggie is tough, precise and protective of his fragile sibling. Much more than a gimmick, it’s like watching one side of a mind wrestle with the other – literally, in one explosive, fun-to-unpick fight scene. In what is surely his finest hour, Tom Hardy plays both brothers. By then, the twin brothers were ruling the East End, West End and beyond, running clubs and protection rackets, warring with the Richardson family from south London, flirting with the American Mafia and committing the murders that would put them away for life. Slick melancholy crime drama ‘Legend’ drops us straight into the mid-1960s glory days of London gangsters Ronnie and Reggie Kray.
