Plots(1)
In a crime family saga set in 1984 and spanning 10 years, The Take stars Tom Hardy as violent gangster Freddie Jackson and Brian Cox as devious crime boss Ozzy. Just released from a 4-year stretch in jail, Freddie is now a free man who plans to take the London criminal world by storm. As he lunges into a psychotic rampage of murder and betrayal, his wife Jackie (Kierston Wareing) becomes increasingly unstable, made worse by the actions of her sister Maggie (Charlotte Riley) who is in love with Freddie's cousin, Jimmy (Shaun Evans). (official distributor synopsis)
