In Reply to: One of the most enjoyable movies Glengarry Glen Ross on Netflix posted by Eldragon@gmx.com on August 27, 2012 at 19:18:36:
There is another film I actually like as much maybe even more. I do like David Mammet a good bit and actually have come to like Spaceys performance as much as anyones in the film. The Simpsons have incorporated a character in their show based on Jack Lemmon's character in GGGR.
That movie is "The Prime Gig" with Ed Harris, Julia Ormond and Vince Vaughn. Give that a whirl too. Don't get me wrong, GGGR is great but I think it gets an unfair boost from its great cast over its content more than anything. Sometimes Mammet is too much and a little unbelievable IMO.
As good as the Baldwin scene is it's too much - 3rd place, your fired.
