Glen Gary Glen Ross is obviously one of the best plays of all time and a lot of people's favorites.

the author of the play David Mammoth is really prolific. He's written a lot of plays and books and screenplays including wag the dog.

I actually watched the movie last year I got some buddies of mine that you know I write scripts with and do all stuff and we had this thing for a while where we were doing like movie night when we were editing old dads just to give our brain a break and actually enjoy it when you're editing movies you fucking hate movies because it's nothing but work.

So now after I clean up those four drawers of horror you know that'll be good because then I'll have nothing else to do and then the demons start coming up and I'll be like what can I do to stop the demons? I'm gonna start reading this fucking play.
