House of Games review (right click, save as)
David Mamet’s early confidence film House of Games. The House of Games location (a bar and pool hall) reminds me of Denehey’s place in FX2. It’s where I want to live when I grow up. Send emails about where you want to live when you grow up to: futilepodcast@gmail.com

Heist review (right click, save as)
We begin Mamet March with this con picture staring Gene “the Hackman” Hackman. It’s also got Delroy Lindo (who hasn’t been in much recently which is a shame because he’s awesome). We also discuss some thematic issues that Mamet deals with in most of his stories. Usually something about underestimation of the “old guy” OR of the mark. Send emails: futilepodcast@gmail.com
musics:
Cannonball Adderly – Who Cares (take 5)
John Coltrane – But Not For Me
I’ll admit I don’t know what that means but if I know one thing it is this: Stiles is awesome!
