Ep. 227: Glengarry Glen Ross

Zo gets a call from a man who's voice was familiar. The man had the demeanor of an old friend who was excited to talk to him. He wanted to catch up, sit down and talk about old times. They agree to meet at the bar and, while the man seemed friendly enough, Zo realized that the stranger isn't actually someone he knew or anyone he remembered meeting. Not wanting to be rude Zo carries on with the meeting with this friendly stranger, who's name was Ricky Roma, over drinks about morality, the future, and if there was something that anyone wanted then they should just take it. They should throw caution to the wind. They should give in to their base impulses because you only live once. You can't miss out on the good things in life because of morality or an abundance of caution because that's an easy way to miss out and get left behind. There is no morality. Ricky Roma then pulls out a brochure extolling the bountiful virtues of the Glengarry Highlands in Florida . . . it is a very tempting offer.     Episode Chapters 00:07:21 Opening Credits for Glengarry Glen Ross starring Al Pacino, Jack Lemmon, Alec Baldwin, Alin Arkin, Ed Harris 00:15:28 Favorite Parts of the 1992 film Glengarry Glen Ross  01:14:41 Trivia from the office drama - Glengarry Glen Ross  01:21:23 Critics' Thoughts on James Foley's Glengarry Glen Ross  Please leave a comment, suggestion or question on our social media: Back Look Cinema: The Podcast Links:Website: www.backlookcinema.comEmail: [email protected]: https://www.youtube.com/@backlookcinemaTwitter: https://twitter.com/backlookcinemaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/BackLookCinemaInstagram: https://instagram.com/backlookcinemaThreads: https://www.threads.net/@backlookcinemaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@backlookcinemaTwitch https://www.twitch.tv/backlookcinemaBlue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/backlookcinema.bsky.socialMastodon: https://mstdn.party/@backlookcinemaBack Look Cinema Merch at Teespring.comBack Look Cinema Merch at Teepublic.com Again, thanks for listening.
