But I'm a Cheerleader was actually pretty funny.

Then again, I'm partial to anything that mocks Christianity.

That picture is an acting clinic! Stellar work by the entire cast, but in particular Jack Lemon, Al Pacino, and Jonathan Pryce. Brilliantly written by David Mamet, under the fine direction of James Foley (who made another fine film At Close Range w/ Sean Penn and Christopher Walken)great choice DJ.

Excellent review Mike....Often said that the best 5 minute acting job i ever saw was Alec Baldwin's speech to the group..."First prize is a Caddilac, 2nd is a set of steak knives, 3rd you are fired'...Here's a clip of that scene...


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVQPY...layer_embedded


Another favorite scene of mine is the one from Network...Ned Beatty tells Peter Finch who really runs the world...more truth than fiction...

"YOUR OUT OF ORDER, I'M OUT OF ORDER! More fine work from Al Pacino. Jack Warden in a kooky performance.
