Movies these days often span dozens of different locations and sets, with scores of extras in the background bringing the cast to thousands. But why complicate things? That's the thought process on display in Locke, a brilliant movie set entirely in one location, and with only one face on screen, now available on Amazon Prime Video.
Luckily that face is the chiselled visage of Tom Hardy, who is tasked with (and successfully pulls off) carrying the entire movie. He plays Ivan Locke, a construction worker set to overlook a huge cement pour. But his work plans are soon thrown off when out of the blue he learns that a woman he had a one-night stand with is about to give birth to his baby.
