8. Locke (2014) Film Review

In the eighth episode of A24 On The Rocks, these five friends discuss the 2014 film Locke starring Tom Hardy. Construction foreman Ivan Locke tries to balance his disintegrating family life, the largest concrete pour in Europe outside of nuclear/military, and a baby being born all while talking to people (voice acted by a stunning supporting cast) through his car speakers. A film that takes place entirely in one BMW with only one character on screen, director and writer Steven Knight took an experimental risk with this film, did it pay off? Listen to find out. Caution: movie spoilers.
