Lawless (2012)

Lawless is a 2012 gangster film directed by John Hillcoat (The Road) based on the true story of a family of bootleggers (portrayed by Shia LaBeouf, Tom Hardy, and Jason Clarke) who decide to fight back against a corrupt politician and his agent. The film is set in Franklin County, Virginia in 1931, late in the Prohibition era.

The film's cast includes Jessica Chastain, Guy Pearce, and Gary Oldman. It was based on the book The Wettest County in the World, written by Matt Bondurant, grandson of Jack.
