Here is Alec Baldwin as Blake in the movie Glengarry Glen Ross. Written originally by David Mamet as a play, it debuted in London in 1983 and then shown later the same year in NY and Chicago. In 1992 it was adapted for film.
Baldwin almost didn’t play this part: He left the project after signing on due to a contract dispute. He reconsidered knowing the script was one of the best he’d ever read.
I’ve only got 10 dvd’s. This is one of them.
This is Alec’s best scene. Now he’s doing these crappy movies. And Jack Lemon, the scowl on his face speaks for itself.
Will you go to lunch?
