The dialogue in Glengarry, Glen Ross is classic David Mamet - fast, cynical, sharp. Mamet won the Pulitzer for the play in 1984, and he made his directorial debut three years later with a movie he also wrote called House of Cards. That film, and two of his others, The Spanish Prisoner and Heist, are about con artists. Mamet's newest, Redbelt, is an action movie about a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner.
Magician, actor, and writer Ricky Jay is believed to be one of the greatest sleight of hand masters in the US. He talks with Bob about his passion for cards and magic, as well as his recent work with director David Mamet.
Bob Edwards Weekend is a two-hour interview showcase, in which celebrated host Bob Edwards highlights the life and work of interesting people, from newsmakers, historians, and authors to artists, actors, and regular folks too.
