Bronson (2008)
Biopic of the notorious convict, who was sent to prison for seven years after a failed armed robbery, only for his sentence to be increased to over 30 years by an escalating series of violent incidents, ultimately earning him tabloid celebrity as the most violent prisoner in Britain. Starring Tom Hardy, Hugh Ross and Juliet Oldfield
Really good film and up there in my top 10.
