For my twenty-fourth Film Friday, I am going to write about one of my favorite songs. I am going to write about an early 1990's classic. I am going to write about Glengarry Glen Ross.
The plot of this movie is very simple. It follows four real estate salesman that have to see leads to people. They are in a competition from their company to be the highest seller of the month. The older salesman has a sick daughter, and if he can't sell anything anymore, then he is going to be fired. It also follows a guy who is uptight, and a guy who goes with the flow, and together they plot to steal the leads and sell them for quick cash to a rival company. It also follows the top seller, Richard Roma, and his relationship with his boss.
This movie has such a great cast of characters. The boss of the film, John Williamson, is played by the incomparable Kevin Spacey. The big character in the film Richard Roma, is played by the GOAT Al Pacino. Then there are the supporting cast of Jack Lemmon, Ed Harris, Alan Arkin, and Alec Baldwin.
They really do such a great job in this film, and I strongly suggest to watch this movie. Since it is based on a play made eight years earlier, you can tell, because of two things. First, there is only one main set, the office, and second, the camera angles that they use to follow the characters give it away. I will link a few of the best clips down below for you guys to watch. I hope you all enjoy them!
