Friday

Save us the aisle seats

In conjunction with the release of our book, the Aero Theater in Santa Monica is doing a David Mamet film festival, beginning tonight with Glengarry Glen Ross. When Mamet – our Godfather of Grift – adapted his play for the big screen, he added a new character, specifically for Alec Baldwin. The role was Blake, and the performance, as you know, was brilliant.

"We're adding a little something to this month's sales contest. As you all know, first prize is a Cadillac Eldorado. Anybody want to see second prize? Second prize is a set of steak knives. Third prize is you're fired." For one of the longest quotes pages on IMDB, click here. Memorize it all for the sing-a-long tonight.

7:30PM, Aero Theater, 1328 Montana Avenue @ 14th Street. (Tomorrow: The Spanish Prisoner)
