Should be shown to every single new hire at a company that is involved with corporate sales. Especially those who are not sales people.

Interesting film, but incredibly reliant on its source material (a stage play) which does lessen the 'closeness' that a live audience would have. There's good and bad in that. The good points are the core performances of the three leads, all share screen time and all commit to their characters. The narrative is strong, with discussions of religion, life, death, overcoming adversity, and accepting failures. It works well. The bad points are that the structure doesn't suit a film. As a single set stage-play I would imagine it would be far more electrifying, but over 90 minutes there are long scenes that do lag. Also there was (for me anyway) a muddled subtext. It's clear that the three characters are all meant to have their own sensibilities and we get to understand them, but the pay off at the end is somewhat anticlimactic. As such the movie fails to 'work', even if it's worth watching.
