Dealers is a 1989 British thriller directed by Colin Bucksey and starring Paul McGann, Rebecca De Mornay, and Derrick O'Connor. The film delves into the world of cocaine dealing and explores the destructive impact of addiction on both the individuals and the people around them. The story centers around the character of Paul (Paul McGann), a successful cocaine dealer who has everything he could ever want in life - money, power, and respect. However, despite his seemingly idyllic life, Paul is struggling with a crippling addiction to cocaine that threatens to destroy everything he has worked so hard to achieve.

As Paul's addiction spirals out of control, he finds himself embroiled in a dangerous game of cat and mouse with the police, who are determined to bring him down. At the same time, he must also deal with the betrayals of his closest associates and the damaging consequences of his own actions.

Things take a turn for the worse when Paul meets a beautiful young woman named Lucy (Rebecca De Mornay) and falls in love with her. Desperate to turn his life around, he tries to quit the drug trade and start a new life with Lucy. However, his past catches up with him, and he finds himself facing the consequences of his past mistakes.

Dealers is a film that is both intense and thought-provoking. It explores the themes of addiction, temptation, and the price of success, as well as the impact of drug addiction on individuals and society as a whole. The film features strong performances from its cast, particularly from Paul McGann, who delivers a powerful portrayal of a man struggling to maintain control over his life in the face of addiction.

Rebecca De Mornay is equally impressive as Lucy, bringing a certain vulnerability and naivety to the role that makes her character all the more sympathetic. Derrick O'Connor also delivers a memorable performance as Detective Inspector Fleming, the man tasked with bringing Paul and his associates down.

Overall, Dealers is a gripping thriller that explores some of the darker aspects of the human psyche.
