"Cassandra's Dream"(2007)


- not much to say other than that this is essentially a much better (though not great) of Woody Allen's unbelievably overrated "Match Point".

- Philip Glass creates a perfectly dark, ominous, and unsettling score, though at times it sounds a bit too much like his work for "Notes on a Scandal".

- Parts feel rushed, with the actors sound like they had guns pointed at them the whole time; the line delivery is so quick it's almost annoying.

- hopefully Allen's upward swing continues with this year's "Vicky Cristina Barcelona"....
