  • Locke Director: Steven Knight Country
    Locke Director: Steven Knight Country: UK Date: 2013 A review by Olly Richards for Empire online: The film you think of when you hear the description “Tom Hardy on his own in a car for 90 minutes” is almost certainly not what this is. That synopsis conjures images of a thriller, lots of noisy chasing, perhaps a heist gone wrong, and almost definitely somebody at some point being called a slag. None of that happens. Actually, someone is called a slag, but in slightly different words and with different intent. And if this is to some degree a thriller, insofar as a man’s entire life as he knows it is in the balance, it is a thriller of whispers and terrible silences, of inaction rather than action. Its biggest set-piece involves dropping a folder. Hardy is Ivan, a construction worker (also unaccountably and a little distractingly Welsh), who leaves a building site the night before a huge project as a valued worker and beloved family man. He then locks himself in his car and drives through the night, during which time his career, wife and two sons will gradually slip away from him. Or rather he will gradually push them away as he unburdens his conscience over a series of phone calls and heads toward the biggest mistake of his life. Steven Knight’s first film as director was the dreadful Hummingbird, a movie that fudged an interesting idea (Jason Statham as a damaged, homeless soldier) with a complete lack of subtlety and a slow slip onto the rails of near-enough every other Jason Statham film.

BBC First has announced it will air the new series within a week of it’s UK screening. The show will premiere on the channel on Sundays at 8.30pm from November 19. Game of Thrones star Aidan Gillen and Academy Award winner Adrien Brody (The Grand Budapest Hotel) join the star-studded cast alongside Cillian Murphy (The Dark Knight Rises) Helen McCrory (Skyfall) and Paul Anderson (The Revenant) and Tom Hardy (Taboo). Steven Knight’s critically- acclaimed and multi award-winning series which counts Snoop Dog, Steven Spielberg, Brad Pitt and Ed Sheeran amongst its famous fans, reaches new levels of intensity in its action-packed fourth series. After the dramatic end of series three which saw the entire Shelby clan – apart from Tommy - being taken away by the police, there are a lot of questions to answer. It’s now December 1925. Tommy Shelby OBE (Cillian Murphy) has acquired unprecedented legitimacy. The former gangster is also a man alone, estranged from his family and focused only on business. But when he receives a mysterious letter on Christmas Eve, Tommy realises that the Shelbys are in danger of annihilation. As the enemy closes in, Tommy flees his country house and returns to the only safe place he knows: Small Heath, Birmingham, the slum where he grew up.
