Written and Directed by David Mamet

Starring Gene Hackman, Delroy Lindo, Sam Rockwell, Danny Devito, Rebecca Pidgeon, Ricky Jay

Synopsis: “A jewel thief (Devito)’s nephew (Rockwell) is sent along on a heist to ensure a longtime partner in crime (Hackman) stays honest about the division of the loot.”

Great movie. Character-driven crime movie with incredible dialogue. I repeat, Incredible Dialogue. It would have been interesting to see a more visually sophisticated director take this script on, but Mamet does a decent job translating his own script to the screen. I miss Gene Hackman.
