And the purpose of this film was? I suppose, if you've never experienced this part of American culture, it is a learning experience: a very accurate depiction on the bs reality that many sales-people immerse themselves in. I know. Baldwin's character was so real, it was scary. But did I have to sit through 100 minutes of this? I felt constantly like the director was simply using this vehicle to impress viewers? whoever? with his cinematic style (sorry -- this style was worn out in the 60's/70's). O.K., maybe that was all this film was about: Style. But 100 minutes worth? Sure the actors must have had a ball working with each other, but audience in mind: a 30 minute film would have said everything this film had to say. Woo! Deep! NOT!
