Glengarry Glen Ross (film)


 

Glengarry Glen Ross is the title of a 1992 movie, based on the 1984 Pulitzer Prize-winning play by David Mamet, who adapted it into a screenplay for the film. The film shows parts of two days in the lives of four desperate real estate agents who are prepared to engage in any number of unethical and/or illegal acts (from lies and flattery to bribery, threats and intimidation to burglary) in order to sell undesirable real estate to unwilling prospective buyers ("leads").
