So did you know about this Joe Jaws guy at the time? He's from your hometown, right?

I remember reading about him in the local paper, but I did not know him.

I'm originally from Philly, not Jersey.

Truth be told, I was that guy. Not literally, but same obsession as a kid. I've probably seen it 30-plus times, easily.

First Photo Of Tom Hardy As Both Ron And Reggie Kray

Apparently, anything Gary and Martin Kemp can do, Tom Hardy can do one better. And no, we don’t mean belting out a rendition of Gold. Hardy has taken on the task of playing not one but two Kray brothers in the new film Legend, which charts an incident in their nefarious rise to power. It’s now shooting and the first picture of Hardy has been revealed.

LA Confidential’s Brian Helgeland is once more in a historical criminal arena, adapting John Pearson’s book The Progression Of Violence. Legend dips into the dark underbelly of the swinging ‘60s, when sharp-suited gangsters warred for turf and control, and innocent people were caught in the middle of the conflict, even though criminals like Ron and Reggie Kray liked to claim they only went after the competition.

Emily Browning, David Thewlis, Christoph Eccleston, Taron Egerton, Tara Fitzgerald and Chazz Palminteri fill out the rest of the main cast for the film, which is rolling the cameras in London now after a successful trip to rustle up sales in Cannes. There’s no sign of a release date yet, but we’d expect Legend to arrive either later this year or mid 2015.

Tree of Life

Pusher TRilogy (1st Movie by far the best)

Pumping Iron

Dead Man (Johnny Depp)

Pulp Fiction

Warriors

Heat (Val Kilmer)

Scarface

Resevior Dogs

True Romance

At Close Range (Chris & Sean Penn - Chistopher Walken)

Not a bad list. Kilmer is not dead yet, he is working again:

The Birthday Cake: Val Kilmer Stars In Exclusive Gangster Movie Clip

In mobster movies, family is everything – whether it’s blood relations or gangster relations, it’s both the thing that could keep you well-protected, or the thing that could get you unceremoniously whacked. In upcoming mob thriller The Birthday Cake, the net seems to be closing in on Gio, attending a get-together for the 10th anniversary of his father’s death and continuing the tradition of bringing along a cake baked by his mother. But, as you’ll see in this exclusive new clip – featuring Shiloh Fernandez as Gio, and also starring Vincent Pastore (aka The Sopranos’ Big Pussy) and the legendary Val Kilmer – it’s far from a warm reception, and there are secrets just waiting to tumble out.

The Birthday Cake is the feature debut of director Jimmy Giannopoulos, and elsewhere among its cast you’ll find Goodfellas and The Sopranos star Lorraine Bracco, You’s Penn Badgley, First Cow’s John Magaro, The OA’s Emory Cohen, William Fichtner, and Luis Guzmán. Oh, and the wan-and-obi Ewan McGregor is in there too.

Grab a slice of The Birthday Cake when it comes to UK cinemas on premium digital on 16 July.
