When David Mamet’s play Glengarry Glen Ross has been performed by some of the best actors in the business, including Joe Mantegna, Robert Prosky, Jack Lemmon, Alan Alda, Liev Schreiber, Al Pacino, and Jeffrey Tambor, just to name a few. There is just something about seeing seasoned character actors sink their teeth into edgy, well-written characters. While there will likely not be anybody looking to unseat James Foley’s masterful 1992 adaptation, it’s fun to think of what kind of film could be made now, 2o years later.And, yes, I have returned to the original stage play, which sadly means there is no Blake character.Director: Craig Zobel Writer: David Mamet Starring:

Oh hell yes.
Yes, very good list, but I have one question.
Who will be playing the role of F*ck You?
That character’s official name is Blake. He does not appear in the play, so he’s not a part of it.
Oh my gosh, this is great.
