The Pullitzer prize winning
work of Playwright/Noted Director David Mamet
This is a brilliant work by David
Mamet in what is a Pullitzer Prize winning script of great insight
into the world of high pressure sales environments - where strictly being paid
by "commission" takes
its toll on the individuals involved.
David Mamet is well known for his work in somewhat esoteric circles of taste in
this respect -
as he was director in "House of Games" the other such great movie starring in
this case, his former
lovely wife Ms. Lindsay Crouse, and starring as well the talented Mr. Joe
Mantegna
It is clear that Mamet has his mind well tuned to the brilliantly insightful
nuances through
well scripted
glimpses into the human psyche around such situations as are similarly themed to
some extent
across such of his works as I mention here.
His genius is done justice with the brilliant acting too of Al Pacino, Jack
Lemmon
and a nice show as well by Alec Baldwin and the rest of the crew in this great
movie
offering. This script would be a great idea for a permanent run on Broadway too
perhaps!
If you want to learn more about the sort of people who are the sorts often drawn
into
the high stakes game of "large ticket" commission sales such as real estate and
fancy cars
and what have you, or in any event want to gain more insight into the human
condition
with this well acted well scripted play, you wont want to miss out. While many
offer
multi-gig HD offerings of this movie on torrents or what have you, we have here
instead
a nice reasonable bitrate DivX version of the movie that you are certain to
enjoy, and we hope
you will purchase the DVD too if you feel its worth having as it certainly does
fall
into the category of deserving a "cult following" of sorts - as did "house of
Games" a
movie that is also one of my favorites too.
