false 98171 2 <b>THE SPANISH PRISONER</b><br>"Elegant, entertaining. . . . Mamet's craftiest and most satisfying cinematic puzzle." --<i>The New York Times</i><br><br><b>THE WINSLOW BOY</b><br>"One of the most subtly compelling love stories of the year." --<i>The New York Observer</i><br><br>Pulitzer Prize winner David Mamet ranks among the century's most influential writers for stage and screen. His dialogue--abrasive, rhythmic--illuminates a modern aesthetic evocative of Samuel Beckett. His plots--surprising, comic, topical--have evoked comparisons to masters from Alfred Hitchcock to Arthur Miller. Here are two screenplays demonstrating the astounding range of Mamet's talents. <br>        <b>The Spanish Prisoner</b>, a neo-noir thriller about a research-and-development cog hoodwinked out of his own brilliant discovery, demonstrates Mamet's incomparable use of character in a dizzying tale of twists and mistaken identity. <b>The Winslow Boy</b>, Mamet's revisitation of Terence Rattigan's  classic 1946 play, tells of a thirteen-year-old boy accused of stealing a five-shilling postal order and the tug of war for truth that ensues between his middle-class family and the Royal Navy. Crackling with wit, intelligent and surprising, <b>The Spanish Prisoner</b> and <b>The Winslow Boy</b> celebrate Mamet's unique genius and our eternal fascination with the extraordinary predicaments of the common man. 94629 1998 The Spanish Prisoner and The Winslow Boy: Two Screenplays total:43|5:0|4:1|3:0|2:0|1:0| 43 173 51 1 3 0 false false Thu Aug 21 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu Aug 21 13:56:06 -0700 2008 Thu Aug 21 13:56:06 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Thu Oct 08 21:20:33 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 08 21:20:33 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Thu Aug 27 21:23:49 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 27 21:23:49 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Tue Aug 18 20:13:31 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 18 20:13:31 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed Jul 29 08:06:11 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 29 08:06:11 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Tue Jun 09 21:48:41 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 09 21:48:41 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Thu May 28 21:22:15 -0700 2009 Thu May 28 21:22:19 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Thu May 14 18:33:46 -0700 2009 Thu May 14 18:33:46 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Fri Apr 17 13:53:27 -0700 2009 Fri Apr 17 13:53:27 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Apr 07 11:39:06 -0700 2009 Tue Apr 07 11:39:19 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Mar 20 12:23:26 -0700 2009 Fri Mar 20 12:23:37 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Tue Mar 03 12:20:05 -0800 2009 Tue Mar 03 12:20:05 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Tue Mar 03 05:36:15 -0800 2009 Tue Mar 03 05:36:15 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Sat Jan 31 05:33:20 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 31 05:33:20 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Tue Nov 25 07:39:11 -0800 2008 Tue Nov 25 07:39:11 -0800 2008 2 0 false false Fri Sep 26 05:14:29 -0700 2008 Fri Sep 26 05:14:29 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun Aug 10 08:25:36 -0700 2008 Sun Aug 10 08:25:36 -0700 2008 3 0 false false Wed Jul 09 18:56:59 -0700 2008 Wed Jul 09 18:56:59 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Tue Jul 01 14:25:25 -0700 2008 Tue Jul 01 14:25:25 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Tue Jun 17 20:40:10 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 17 21:21:10 -0700 2008
