Review of Glengarry Glen Ross (1992) by Lorenzo V — 24 Mar 2009
"The hardest thing in life is sell".
An examination of the machinations behind the scenes at a real estate office.
REVIEW.
You don't have to know a lot about selling real estate to enjoy Glengarry Glen Ross, because screenwriter David Mamet and director James Foley plunge you into the shark tank of the daily lives of burned-out salesmen with a completely three-dimensional feel. The characters are jaded, despaired, angry, at the end of their rope, their dialogue is profanity-laden poison sprung from a well of desperation deep in their souls. The performances in Glengarry Glen Ross are commanding, incredible -- the respectable cast plays off each other quite well, and Mamet's dialogue keeps things going at a sensible pace.
