Plot
Brian Helgeland ('A Knight's Tale') directs two Tom Hardys in 'Legend'. Hardy plays Ronald and Reggie Kray, two twins that became two of the biggest gangsters in the History of United Kingdom. Together they forge a great crime empire at London's East End, becoming two of the most powerful men of the city in the 60s. But what goes up must go down, and the growth of their empire, and a woman that puts herself between the two brothers, threaten to destroy everything that they have accomplished. 'Legend' has Christopher Eccleston, Joshua Hill, Emily Browning, Colin Morgan, Paul Anderson and Tarah Fitzgerald in its main cast. Tom Hardy received a nomination for best actor at the British Independent Film Awards.

Trivia
Reggie Kray later admitted to another murder on his death bed, that of Mad Teddy Smith, Ronnie Kray's henchman and homosexual lover who was portrayed by Taron Egerton in the movie.
When Ronnie is walking Francis to the car, he talks about a man in a flood and cutting a bit off in order to carry on. This is taken partly from Tom Hardy's phone calls to Charles Bronson which can be seen on the Bronson extras and on YouTube.
In the UK, 'Legend' became the highest grossing 18-rated British film of all time, surpassing 'Trainspotting'.
