directed by David
Mamet
USA 1997
Joseph
Ross (Campbell Scott) is about to hit the corporate big time. His design process
will produce millions for his employers. It is scrupulously guarded. On a
fiduciary excursion to the Carribean he meets a wealthy and mysterious stranger
named Jimmy Dell (Steve Martin). A reticent boss and a wanton secretary all add
to an essentail con-game - but who is conning who?. Mamet's tailor-made dialogue
and intricate plot twists will have your gray cells maxing-out till the finale.
Probably my favorite David Mamet work and one of the best films of the 90's.

The DVD is far
less stellar than the brilliant film. Columbia Tri-Star have produced
some great DVDs in the past... and some real clunkers. This falls
somewhere in the middle. Anamorphic, yet occasionally soft image, colors
are a little washed, original audio, gaudy subtitles and no extras. A
shame because this film deserved much better.
