'Always Be Closing' is the motto chanted like a mantra by the high pressure hustlers in this superb screen version of David Mamet's play about the wheeling and dealing real estate salesmen at a small Chicago office. After the brilliant, brutal pep talk by Baldwin's smooth area exec at the film's opening, the street wise individuals engage in a frantic scramble to achieve peak performance in order to retain their jobs. Pacino as smooth talking Ricky Roma and Lemmon as the desperate, grasping Shelly 'The Machine' Levene are standouts from a brilliant ensemble cast. < less
