Ballad of a Bluff: Colin Farrell Gambles with Identity in TIFF Thriller
from Stories in Motion · host D & J
Our 29th TIFF film takes us to the glitzy casinos of Macau, where Colin Farrell plays a washed-up gambler on the verge of collapse in Ballad of a Small Player. It looks sharp, sounds intense — but does it deliver? We talk velvet suits, fake lives, and why this Netflix noir never quite cashes in.
