LONDON - Director David O. Russell got his starry cast involved in the creation of his new crime drama Amsterdam. The five-time Oscar nominee reunited with his The Fighter and American Hustle star Christian Bale to develop the movie, with the duo getting together in diners...

Returning to New York from World War 1, scarred inside and out, Burt starts practising experimental medicine and Harold becomes a lawyer, championing the vulnerable. When the daughter of their wartime battalion leader turns to them for help following his sudden, suspicious death, the trio becomes entangled in a dangerous political conspiracy plot.

Elements of the film are inspired by real historical events and people, including a fascist coup attempt against US President Franklin D. Roosevelt. "We wanted to see a friendship that we wanted to have, a triangle of people that would do absolutely anything for each other no matter what," said Bale. "They've been kind of forged in the crucible of the Great War, and they've declared they will do anything for each other, and they stick to that no matter what, even when they're dragged into this big murder rap and then into this huge global conspiracy, which is crazy but is actually based on fact," said Bale.

In addition to its top-billing trio, the movie features a star-studded cast including Taylor Swift, Robert De Niro, Chris Rock, Anya Taylor-Joy, Rami Malek and Mike Myers. - REUTERS
