Description

Another Chicago film classic! After last week's lighthearted romp through the Windy City and environs, the Dads try to close the sale on the film version of David Mamet's 1984 Pulitzer Prize-winning play. Big Dad Energy abounds in this masterclass in machismo, featuring luminaries like Ed Harris, Alan Arkin, Al Pacino, and the incandescent Jack Lemmon (as well as the "uncomfortable-to-varying-degrees" presences of Kevin Spacey, Alec Baldwin, and the specter of the playwright himself). Two Webby Awards means we get Cadillacs; one Webby Award means we get a set of steak knives; no Webby Awards means we're fired, so stream/download our deep dive into James Foley's 1992 filmed adaptation of David Mamet's GLENGARRY GLEN ROSS!
