The Way Of The Mamet is The Way Of The Man. Are you Man enough for Mamet? David Mamet cordially invites you to attend his latest Man-dance....
I see his wife's in it again. Sigh.
Hey! Kids! The double DVD of Glengarry Glen Ross is £3.00 in HMV. Imagine - a Pulitzer prize winning play starring Al Pacino, Jack Lemmon, Kevin Spacey, Alan Arkin, Jonathan Pryce and Alec Baldwin, all delivering lines you will, and I promise you you will, quote forevermore, for less than price of the mince I just ruined "cooking" tonight. Bargain! (Mamet would not "cook" - Mamet would eat his mince raw! After "loving it" harshly.Grrrr!)
Next time you are in OKComics ask OKComicsman the ABC of selling. He'll tell you.
Hey! OKComicsman! Did you ever watch Mamet's Spartan starring Ms Valerie "Knight Rider: Twelve Minutes Past Eight" Kilmer? It was better than you thought, eh?
"You ever take a dump made you feel like you'd just slept for twelve hours?"
That's just one line in this Man-fest. One line. And you don't want to watch it? You're telling me you- a man - do not want to watch this. I think you do. I think in fact you do want to watch this. You should make love to your mind by watching this. And if you don't like it, baby, I'm going across the street to Jerry Graff, period.
I, for one, think you should watch it.
OKComicsman says: "You want to know what it takes to sell comics? It takes BRASS BALLS to sell comics."
I've taken dumps that good. There is only one course of action available to me - I must watch this film. I must watch it today. But...wait. Today I watched Mr OK's copy of the new Knight Rider pilot, meaning Glengarry Glen Ross will inevitably be the second best thing I see today, unless it also has a Hoff cameo?
No. And if you saw The Cannonball Run tonight GGR will slip into Third place. Fourth place if you also saw that ad with the badly animated cats in the gym - "Crusha! I wanna Crusha!" Still, up against competition that strong, fourth is no disgrace.
