7. Dunkirk (2017)
This war drama is based on events that occurred at the beginning of World War II. The plot revolves around the evacuation of hundreds of thousands of British, French, and Belgian soldiers surrounded by the Germans in the area of the city of Dunkirk. The enemy is advancing, and with every minute, the chances of salvation are getting slimmer. Tom Hardy got a very dramatic role as the British pilot Farrier, but that also meant he had to emote using only his eyes most of the time.
8. Tinker Tailor Spy (2011)
Former British intelligence agent George Smiley leads the undercover investigation to expose a Soviet spy who has infiltrated the intelligence service. By the way, the role of the charming MI6 agent Ricky Tara, who seduced the wife of a Soviet spy, went to Hardy by sheer coincidence, as the producer noticed his resemblance to a young Robert Redford.
