A decent gangster movie that really stands out for the acting performances of its leading stars, Lawless features Tom Hardy in the role of Forrest Bondurant, one of three bootlegging brothers who all manage to survive various hardships and challenges to make it through the Prohibition era.

At the film's end, all three brothers have gotten married and found new jobs, but the epilogue doesn't end too well for Forrest. Throughout the film, Hardy's character is seemingly unkillable, managing to survive several gunshot wounds and getting his throat slit, but his luck finally runs out in one of Lawless' most bizarre and memorable moments.

A drunken Forrest is seen ambling about near a frozen lake with a bottle in his hand, doing a funny little dance before plunging off the bottom of the screen and into the frozen depths. He does manage to swim to shore but the voiceover narration from his brother Jack reveals that he later died of pneumonia.
