Mamet's debut film. I'm reading Gavin De Becker's The Gift of Fear, and he references this film, so I looked it up - house of games ebert, and it's one of his Great Movies. All I can say is hell hath no fury...
The scene he mentions has a well known actor in a bit part - he only shows up in this one scene - William H. Macy.
Anyone who has seen William Wyler's The Letter (1940) may know about the ending [ which was rejected and rewritten because it did not punish the murderer. ] < spoilers, hightlight to read <
Zerkalo (1975) (The Mirror), Andrei Tarkovsky ★★★★★
It is an autobiographical film. The things that happen are real things that happened to people close to me. That is true of all the episodes in the film. But why do people complain that they cannot understand it? The facts are so simple, they can be taken by everyone as similar to the experience of their own lives. But here we come up against something that is peculiar to cinema: the further a viewer is from the content of a film, the closer he is; what people are looking for in cinema is a continuation of their lives, not a repetition. There are no entertaining moments in the film. In fact I am categorically against entertainment in cinema: it is as degrading for the author as it is for the audience.
The Lady in the Van (2015) with Maggie Smith. Excellent!
