Glengarry Glen Ross (1992)


A story about everyone who works for a living. That is the tagline on the movie poster for this movie. And it holds completely true to this film. A movie about a group of land salesman trying to make a living and make a buck.

This movie had quite an amazing cast attached to it, with Jack Lemmon, Kevin Spacey, Ed Harris, Alan Arkin, Al Pacino and Jonathan Pryce and written by one of my all time favorite screen writers David Mamet. When you see the written by credits with David Mamet attached, expect a lot of long dialog scenes, and that is exactly what we got in this film. Extremely well acted and spoken dialog from all the actors in this film. Lemmon pulls off one of my favorite performances by him in this movie.

Not much more to say this but i highly recommend checking this movie out, if you are a fan of dialog or even a fan of Coen Brothers films, check it out. Worth your time

8/10
