Ep 47: 2007 - Cassandra’s Dream *Discussion*

Back on the retrospective with Woody returning to his darker themes for another crime drama - lets dig into it!    With Cassandra’s Dream (2017) we are yet again set in the streets of London, here we have two brothers, Ian Blaine (Ewan McGregor) and Terry Blaine (Colin Farrell), that find themselves trapped in a downward spiral of financial desperation and personal struggles. Ian, a restaurateur struggling to keep his business afloat, desperately seeks funds to secure a new life with his love, Angela (Hayley Atwell). Meanwhile, Terry, a compulsive gambler grappling with debt and addiction, turns to Ian for help, leading to a fateful encounter with a wealthy uncle. This uncle, Howard (Tom Wilkinson), offers them a life-changing deal: a substantial sum of money in exchange for a seemingly insignificant task. However, as the brothers delve deeper into the details of the task, they realize that they have unwittingly become tangled in a web of moral ambiguity and potential consequences.   Please check out the links below for the full cast, user reviews, ratings and info you may find interesting   Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassandra%27s_Dream   IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0795493/   Rotten Tomatoes: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/cassandras_dream   ____________________   A VERY Special Thanks to The Woody Allen Pages Website & The Woody Allen Subreddit for the continued support and info – check them out for the latest from the Woody Allen Fan Community!!   https://www.woodyallenpages.com     &    https://www.reddit.com/r/woodyallen   PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT TO THIS OR ANY OTHER EPISODE USING OUR COMMENT SECTION VIDEO LINK HERE   >>>>>>>  https://bit.ly/warpcom   IF YOU LIKE THE SHOW, PLEASE CONSIDER BUYING US A COFFEE / GIVING US A TIP VIA OUR PATREON CAMPAIGN  >>> https://www.patreon.com/woodyretro   Thanks for listening as always - we would also LOVE a review on iTunes or a 5 star rating via Spotify or whichever podcast platform you are listening on - please find all our connected links below.   >>>   https://linktr.ee/woodyretro
