Glengarry Glen Ross Story

What Is the Story of Glengarry Glen Ross?
David Mamet's Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winning drama Glengarry Glen Ross takes place inside a cutthroat Chicago real estate office in 1983. Four salesman are competing to sell worthless properties: The winner gets a new car; the loser is out of a job. The men are so desperate to keep their jobs that they will lie and steal and ruin the lives of others to win. The sales force is made up of the down-on-his-luck veteran Shelly Levene (Al Pacino), the criminal mastermind Robert Moss (John C. McGinley), the unsuspecting George Aaronow (Richard Schiff) and the team's super salesman, slick and conniving Richard Roma (Bobby Cannavale). After their office is robbed, it's up to manager John Williamson (David Harbour) to figure which of his guys did the crime.
