Breaking Glass Pictures and Rough Diamond Productions announced today's DVD release of Bernard Rose's 2 Jacks, produced by Julia Verdin. Based on Tolstoy's short story "The Two Hussars," the modernized film is Rose's fourth Tolstoy adaptation. 2 Jacks had its world premiere at the Montreal World Film Festival.
2 Jacks is a fast-paced, glamorous and romantic vision of Hollywood now and then. Legendary film director Jack Hussar (Danny Huston, "American Horror Story: Coven", The Aviator, Children of Men), notorious gambler and womanizer, returns to LA to raise financing for his next film.
In a whirlwind night on the town, Jack seduces the stunning Diana (Sienna Miller, The Girl, Stardust, Factory Girl), hits some wild industry parties, narrowly escapes a brush with the law, before playing a high-stakes poker game at dawn.
Years later, Jack Hussar Jr. (Jack Huston, HBO's hit series "Boardwalk Empire", Kill Your Darlings) arrives in Hollywood for his directorial debut, and an older Diana (Jacqueline Bisset, Casino Royale, Airport, "Nip/Tuck") finds her daughter falling for her former lover's son.
