“A-B-C! Always be closing!” Pressed into a Darwinian contest—close deals or get the axe—four haunted salesmen turn against each other and toward desperate measures. Expertly handled by its all-star cast, David Mamet’s script is profane poetry, sizzling with taut rhythm, sharp enough to draw blood.
This screening is presented in conjunction with a Cinema Classics Seminar, taught by Andrew Owen, Ph.D. Seating for screening-only attendees will begin at 7:00 pm. Just want to see the film? Purchase your tickets from this page.
