Damn, he's done a lot. Some I didn't even know were his:

GlenGarry Glen Ross, House of Games, and Vanya on 42nd Street are probably three of my favorite movies.

Oleanna is also really good.

I didn't know he wrote the screenplay for Hannibal. I wasn't crazy about that movie. Though I didn't hate it.

But he has so many great minor movies: The Spanish Prisoner, The Heist, The Winslow Boy, even Wag the Dog (which I also didn't know was him.)

I just added Ronin to the top of my NetFlix list.

I may have to get The Edge too.

Any other fans out there?

Did he do Flashdance?

Just drop a bucket of water on that bearded bitch and I'm in heaven.

I think I've had too much to drink. Damn that Burns!

House of Games is one of my favourite films ever. And that twist at the end...

Oleanna

i loved it

the ending was mind boggling

Okay, not a Mamet film, but anybody see The Saddest Music in the World.

Wow.

Mamet is a great, but he sure isn't Joel Silberg.

Silberg has an understanding of youth culture and the arts that dwarfs his peers. Silberg singlehandedly started genres that have often been imitated but never duplicated.

Just sayin'

I like the one where everbody shouts at each other all the time and say "fuck" a lot. Oh wait - that's all of them.
