Remember David Mamet? I'll take him over Aaron Sorkin anyday. After Inside Job, I had to watch Glengarry Glenross. It's about ponzi schemes, I think. What is a ponzie scheme? Anyway, you can't go wrong with one of the best all-male (I'm obsessed with gender and sex) ensemble cast ever! Jack Lemmon, Young Alec Baldin, Alan Arkin, Kevin Spacey, Al Pacino, Ed Harris! Everyone's really on top of it in this one. It's a movie with a capital M. I saw this on Broadway and all I remember is that it was amazing and that Alan Alda played the Lemmon character and that good theater is so powerful, it gives you such powerful feelings.

i think they're just salesmen, nothing underhanded besides the usual salesmen shit, but i could be wrong.
ReplyDeletei love alan arkin so much. like, so so so much. because i love slums of beverly hills. that's what turned me on to him. now, i see all kinds of stuff with him in it. maybe i'll watch catch 22 right now. because i've seen that, but before i knew that i loved alan arkin. he was really moving in the heart is a lonely hunter.
yeah, david mamit makes such talkie movies. that movie's full of great lines and a great cast. i'm jealous you saw it on broadway.
maybe they are just salesman. i might watch it again. maybe a snatch/gg gr double feature. i'll call it, how dudes make money (a few ways)
