Damian Nieman, who wrote and directed the picture, stars
Gabriel Byrne and
Thandie Newton as a duo of con artists looking to beat the "Dean" (
Sylvester Stallone), a legendary card shark, in a high-stakes poker game. Their first step is hiring two fellow tricksters --
Jamie Foxx and
Stuart Townsend -- to provide the smooth talking and to procure the necessary funds. Unfortunately,
Larry (
Foxx) blows his hand and finds himself with 85,000 dollars worth of debt owed to a local crime boss.
Shade premiered at the
2003 CineVegas film festival and also features
Dina Merrill and
Melanie Griffith.
