Lawless (released 11/10/12)

Recently I posted about some of the films I'm looking forward to for the remainder of 2012. I thoguht I'd add another one that didn't quite make it on the list - "Lawless".

"Lawless" is written by Aussie musician/screenwriter Nick Cave and directed by fellow Aussie John Hillcoat, known for such films as "The Proposition" and "The Road". The film is set in America during The Depression and is about a family of bootleggers who must deal with the conflict and threats from a number of people who want in on their successful, albeit illegal business. In addition to this they must contend with a new deputy intent on making their lives difficult.

The film has a wonderful cast including Shia LaBeouf and the amazing actors Tom Hardy, Gary Oldman and Guy Pearce (not only a terrific actor but another Aussie to add to the mix!). This one looks like an awesome period crime drama. The film is released nationally in Australia Thursday 11 October.
