{Cassandra’s Dream}
Woody Allen’s next film Cassandra’s Dream, which again is set in London (as was Match Point and Scoop) boasts a very British cast that includes Ewan McGregor, Colin Farrell, and Tom Wilkinson.
The film tells the story of two Cockney brothers (Collin Farrell and Ewan McGregor) in south London and their relationship with a young woman (Hayley Atwell) who lands in London on her search for fortune. She crosses the two men by accident on her path and when one them falls in love with her, she becomes aware of her power to attract the opposite sex and uses this to the point of leading the two brothers, who are in financial difficulty, into crime, and creating a dangerous rivalry between the two men.
Seeing as Woody Allen’s films notoriously perform better in Europe, there are no plans to release the film stateside, so you'll have to trek down a region-friendly version when it becomes readily available or wait for it to officially release on DVD in the US.
