Kasszandra álma- Cassandra's Dream (2006) ... Ian
Woody Allennél ritkaság, hogy lehet előre tudni, miről szól majd az új filmje, de ezúttal nyilvánosságra hoztak egy kétmondatos tartalmat. Ezek szerint a főhős két testvér, akik súlyos anyagi gondokkal küszködnek. Egy harmadik szereplő javaslatára bűnügybe keverednek, ám a dolgok nem jól alakulnak, és végül a testvérek ellenséggé válnak...
A filmben fontos szerephez jut az Oscar-jelölt Tom Wilkinson (Batman: Kezdődik!; Ördögűzés Emily Rose üdvéért), valamint egy színésznő is, akinek kiléte egyelőre még nem ismert. Az egyelőre még cím nélküli film várhatóan júniustól forog Londonban. Az operatőr meg nem erősített hírek szerint az Oscar-díjas Zsigmond Vilmos, akivel Allen már a Melinda és Melindát is együtt csinálta.
Ewan McGregor plays Ian, who has a younger brother, played by Colin Farrell. The two Cockney brothers buy a boat, named "Cassandra's Dream", after their mother, in hopes of fixing it up and sailing it around London for tourists. Tom Wilkinson plays the boy's father, who initially lends them the money. While they are fixing up the ship, Ian meets Angela Stark, a beautiful young woman who has come to London lookin for fame and fortune. Ian immediately becomes sexually obsessed with Angela, even though Angela is attracted to Ian's brother. The boy's cannot make back the cost of fixing up Cassandra's Dream, and Angela convinces the brothers to turn to crime. The brothers decide to rob a store, and in the process Ian accidentially kills a man. Now, Ian and his brother are morally opposed to each other. Ian ultimately kills his brother by strangling him, to make sure he does not inform the police. Ian then kills Angela, because as his brother lay dieing, he confessed to Ian that he had been sleeping with her. Emotionally distraught, Ian confesses everything to his father, who stabs Ian in anger, killing him. (The father had always preferred the younger brother to Ian). The father then takes Cassandra's Dream out to sea, and committs suicide by jumping into the lake. The last shot of the film is of the boat bobbing up and down in the water, as the camera zooms in on the words, "Cassandra's Dream."
