LegendUniversal has very limited options with this film, the last of their 2015 stable to get a screener.

Legend

Stars: Tom Hardy, Emily Browning
Director: Brian Helgeland
Premise: From IMDb: “The film tells the story of the identical twin gangsters Reggie and Ronnie Kray, two of the most notorious criminals in British history, and their organised crime empire in the East End of London during the 1960s.”
Oscar Chances: Weak: While the film has largely been trashed by critics, Tom Hardy has been a consistent point of praise for the film. Were the Best Actor slate not so chock full of options, he might have been a slam dunk nominee.
