3. Peaky Blinders (2013)
In the crime-drama series, Tom played the leader of the Jewish criminal group Alfie Solomons, who’s actually based on a real historical character. The audience loved Alfie, but some viewers had a hard time putting their finger on whether he was a comedy relief or a serious character.
4. Locke (2014)
The events of this movie take place overnight and are almost entirely filmed within the confines of an SUV. The plot focuses on the emotional journey of Ivan Locke as he travels from London to Birmingham for the birth of his child. Hardy’s haggard face holds focus for every second of his intense 85-minute performance, conveying a depth of grief, regret, and confusion. This is one of those convoluted movies you won’t understand until you watch it the second time.
