Locke

Tom Hardy

Very powerful one-set film.

A construction foreman is driving to attend the birth of a child born to a woman with whom he had a one night fling. He also deals with a project happening the following day. And his wife and sons...

Intense pot-boiler. The in-car location forces us to focus on the character and the pressure he is under. Hardy is superb as a tightly controlled saririman keeping all the balls in the air.

Great script, execution. Kudos.
