Cassandra’s Dream is the story of two brothers, their problems (blind
ambition and compulsive gambling), their family, their women, their
romance, passion and their chasing of dreams which end in terrible
tragedy. It is a movie of the same type as Match Point set in
contemporary London and it’s environs and full of suspense and tension.
In this case the brothers are working class and brilliantly acted by
Ewan McGregor and Colin Farrell. Tom Wilkinson also appears as he's
never been seen before and Sally Hawkins plays Colin's loving, terrified
fiancée, while Hayley Atwell plays the ravishing, unattainable love/sex
object of Ewan McGregor.
I borrowed this film from my Language School Library, it's a good film.
