Pride and Glory
A movie about cops: bad cops, good cops, and morally ambiguous cops. Shot in a gritty, handheld HBO style, the film focuses on an Irish American family of cops and the scandal that engulfs them all. We get dad cop (John Voight), brother cops (Edward Norton and Noah Emmerich) and brother-in-law cop (Collin Farrell). This cozy cop family is torn apart when a shoot-out at a drug-dealer’s leaves four of their comrades dead. Returning from cop limbo to investigate, Ray Tierney (Norton) discovers police corruption involving his brother-in-law Jimmy Egan (Collin Farrell). Ray’s incessant thread pulling starts to unravel the lives of his family and of his NYPD comrades.
Cassandra's Dream
In Woody Allen’s most recent film, Cassandra’s Dream, Ewan McGregor and Colin Farrell play two working-class London brothers. McGregor is Ian, the smart one, who works in their father’s restaurant while dreaming of a better life, and Farrell is Terry, a former potential sports star, who now works in a garage and is addicted to gambling. When Ian’s relationship with an actress (played by Hayley Atwell) brings his ambitions up a notch, and Terry’s gambling leaves him in serious debt, they go to their well-to-do Uncle Howard (played by Tom Wilkinson) to, effectively, beg for money. Uncle Howard is perfectly willing to help, on the condition that they kill a man whose testimony could put him in prison.
