Film: Glengarry Glen Ross (1992)

DVD: Enhanced 16x9
Glengarry Glen Ross

"PUT THAT COFFEE DOWN. Coffee is for closers."

Review: With this cast of great actors you expect a great movie and it delivers. The flowing dialogue does a great job of capturing the brief highs and very low, lows of being a salesman.

"We're adding a little something to this month's sales contest. As you all know, first prize is a Cadillac Eldorado. Anybody want to see second prize? Second prize is a set of steak knives. Third prize is you're fired."

"What's your name?"
"Fuck you. That's my name. You know why, mister? 'Cause you drove a Hyundai to get here tonight, I drove an eighty thousand dollar BMW. THAT'S my name."

3 1/2 out of 4 Stars
