I closed a deal today with a life insurance client and it isn't that hard. You only have to put their interest first. Plus listening and answering their questions goes along way. Clients smell your interests from a mile way and they will make excuses not to buy your products. So people (salesmen) just be yourself and learn from your up-line and be around successful people who will show you how it is done.
im not a mcdonals worker. im a successful sales person..these lines are garbage and affflecks acting is terrible. plus these guys r ripping people off in this movie. no bueno!
It was a fine movie. Shows the kind of people and firms that almost destroyed this country! The mess we are in now is easy to trace back to this type of business attitude.
@vincentvendetta2 --you are truly an idiot. I hate Baldwin personally he's a liberal puke and wife abuser. But he acted his ass off in Glengarry Glen Ross. This speech is great if you never saw GGR. Affleck isn't the problem, it's the mooch who wrote the script. High school level imitation of a masterpiece. But no Affleck will never be considered a great actor. Adequate, nothing more.
So this is what a poor man's Alec Baldwin monologue sounds like. Could've placed a cardboard in the scene and it would've been better. As the cliche goes, FAIL.
I think this fucking clip is the bomb,and all of you "so-called sales fucks",who are having trouble closing the fucking bathroom door,when you're getting ready to take "a dump",better eat some more "goverment chesse",because you're going die on food stamps,you worth-less bastards.
I really don't find this type of guy attractive... he seems very typical. Face proportioned in average 3rds, vertical symmetry, Square jaw, brown eyes, short brown hair. Sure he's got the typical "good old boy" look, but I just prefer more character in a face. Something distinctive. This guy's not it.
@IMAGonTheInternet Everyone is a face analyst, in the moment that they decide whether or not someone is attractive. DURRRR Did you need that explained to you
So true you need to act the part in sales. I do cold calls durning the slow season at my job. I outsell teams of 13 on cold calls on a daily. I don't take no for an answer and just make it happen. If you are in sales watch this movie and act the part. Just make sure to keep it legal.
@jimbo462nd It has been quite a while since I saw this movie but wasn't the gist of it that they were selling stock in fake companies or was it they were selling stock in real companies and the real companies didn't know about it?
If it sounds too good to be true, it is too good to be true. There is nothing respectable about this speech, rather, it's a poor attempt at conning people to enter a pyramid scheme. The company is not legitimate and the head of the firm (played by Ben Affleck) is a moron. Anyone with a decent sense of foresight can calculate the expected life span of a pyramid scheme and realize that the end of the road is jail.
@TebulotVIII The movie may be based on firms like Stratton Oakmont, but considering the name of the firm here is J.T. Marlin, you've already lost credibility.
Pump and dump fraud is a type of pyramid scheme. After a while, recruits need to be hired on an exponential level in order to seek out new investors, who accordingly buy a greater number of shares or are joined by a proportionally higher number of new investors. It's an unsustainable business that requires growth by mathematical factors.
As much as I think Ben Affleck sucks as an actor, these scenes were excellent. I watch it often and recommend it to my friends and family. Good stuff, great movie.
This is not even minor leagues compared to Alec Baldwin's cameo in Glengarry Glenross. I would call him a poor mans Alec Baldwin but that would be unfair to Baldwin.
So damn true. " Money root of all evil? Only poor fucks say that. Money does bring happiness. Prime example. I work a few days at this corporate building, doing security shit, theres this one dude there, about 24 years old, drives a fucking Masserati { never heard of that car before i met him}, he does accounting or aliek for the CEO floor, anyways. This fucking dude always for lunch has a new bitch or aliek come by for him, hookers or not, hot HOT broads. Did i mention. He is 1 UGLY FatFUK
I don't know why you bitches are moaning about Affleck's role here. Step the fuck away from Baldwin's dick, for just one second....and if you don't like this scene, why the fuck did you come here and watch it.
@AziMeX It's not that we like Baldwin's performance more, it's just Affleck not being credible here. Does he really looks like a badass millionaire to you?
Affleck's performance here is actually dead-on. A college buddy of mine spent a few months at one of the two firms JT Marlin was based on (thankfully he left before things went fully south) and he found these inspirational speeches so hilarious he managed to tape a few secretly. Imagine Long Island douchbaggery and bravado... except controlled and well-educated.
@Murchad99 Well, I agree that if we look at it as a bravado from a youngster, than Affleck is spot on. OTOH, Baldwin's character was different. Thank you for making me notice this.
I find it sad that people label this as an inspirational speech and worthy of admiration. Didn't anyone finish the movie and got the moral of the story? "I learned how to fuck people out of their money...he was just a poor shmuck and I took him" is what Seth said at the end.
This movie wasn't just about a fraudulent brokers firm, it was about a fraudulent career being a sales broker and salesperson, and how utterly irresponsible and destructive it can sometimes be.
@lugia3 Morality is a shallow human invention, only used so you can feel better about your own choices because it's accepted by society. Deep down every man alive wants to have and be like the persona that is here represented by Ben Affleck. The fact that people acknowledge it here is simply because they are anonymous and are therefore not subject to the negative consequences of admitting that they really do not care about these "official bogus moral laws".
Assuming every "man" alive wants that much power, let's all be shrill, cynical, power-thirsty business people. We'll all be dead by the end of the week.
It's not to feel better about our choices. It's that our choices affect our environment. Making unethical choices and not being empathetic to other individuals results in a downward spiral which ultimately leads to social deterioration. Don't define being truthful to other individuals as a "morality" or "law". It's much more than that.
@lugia3 Your first paragraph makes no sense to me. And yes, of course we don't go around murdering people in the streets for personal gain, because there is nothing to gain from it. I'm not saying every man WILL become like this, but I am saying that we all want to. We are biologicaly "programmed" to strive for Alpha-male status, and, although there are some people whom are incapable of becomming leaders, there are no one who doesn't want to be one.
Well when you bring up biology, then yes, I would agree. But as humans we are able to recognize our own biological patterns and "programming" as you put it, and realize that perhaps our behaviors are "irrelevant" and "unsubstantial" to "Survival", and therefore need to be changed. Don't define morality as "shallow", because it is a survival imperative. It is perhaps an invention designed to counter our biological programming to behave in a helpful way.
@lugia3 Now, that I can agree with. What I meant with shallow morality is that although everyone praises themselves on being of high morale in public, when you give them an anonymous forum to express themselves, morality becomes obsolete. Therefore morality is, as you correctly state, an invention that is not even remotely representing real and uninhibited human behaviour.
Many people here I mean in America are not well educated and simple people. They can be sold anything. I got BS and a MS, try selling me anything and trust me you will lose money, I know what I am buying and where I put money.
@tespid419 lol...so true...I got a pretty good job that I can easily afford a $1000/month payment....but I drive a fully paid off car..which I did buy new...but I have colleagues driving very expensive cars making huge payments with insurance..for what, to show off....guys you don't need cars to get women...seriously...have attributes such as - decent looking, well dressed, good body and well spoken , that's all it takes......
Hell yeah..when I came to this country I rode a beater bike...after 2 yrs got a POS (piece of shit) car...graduated to an average car...then am currently driving a high end turbo street terror..a car I used to only dream about. That grin Ben's talking about ear-to-ear baby I had it too..for over a month...before the thrill wore off. Fuck yeah!!! Thank you for this upload Arturasg for it reminds me of my roots man. You always have to look back to remind yourself your beginnnings.
@fordrac1ng81 pfffft.... typical middle line average sales department.... inspired by a movie about fraud... lol... i net more a quarter than you gross annually... why? because I actually find the need and nitch of markets and get paid money to lecture about it for an hour, with all my travel and other expenses paid. have fun watching movies pal whilst im out at the hottest invites, parties, clubs going home with women that wouldnt even give you the time of day.
@JessOnTheRun if ur really this rich guy, why u wasting time on some "bum" ? A real man who is making 7 grand a month or more doesn't slap down people. Now wake up
What a horrendous piece of shit actor. Totally not believable. He's struggling through those lines. I feel sorry for him. He is a dingle berry in Alec Baldwin's ass.
@gtijerino What people don't understand about this movie is that they're not supposed to be 100% believable. There are people out there like this. They work at XYZ Investments in Yonkers and think they work on Wall Street. If you meet these guys, they have a false cockiness about them but inside are super insecure because they didn't go to college and know their firm is shit. Affleck (and many others in this movie) does a good job of projecting that air.
@bertiem lol really? You know statistically you have about as good a chance as becoming one of these guys as you do becoming the next American Idol or Hollywood A-lister.
not buying it at all from pretty-boy affleck, it's like he's reading it off the script. hell, this would have sounded more credible coming from tom cruise.
@schnork You hit it on the head, the entire time I was comparing him to Michael Douglas in Wall Street, and where Douglas made the killer instinct come off naturally, Affleck seems to be working way too hard.
Ben Afleck's acting in this clip seems forced and not believable at all. His performance is a shadow of Alec Baldwin's brilliant peformance in Glengary.
Not to mention that this speech is a direct ripoff of Glengary.
Reading the comments here.... on Affleck's performance. Well, first of all it invites immediate comparison to Alec Baldwin's performance in GlenGarry. That's a given, nobody will dispute that. Is it better? No, it is not. And i hope nobody will dispute that. Why? It's hard to pin point, really. You could say Baldwin had more to work with given that it was a Mamet script but... i don't know... Affleck didn't deliver... Baldwin did... like a fuckin executioner.
Afleck - Worst actor in the Solar System. And to rip off the greatest ensemble of all time in Glengarry Glenross ... embarrassing to watch... an insult. Ben Fuckfleck
People who think like this are the reason 1/2 of America was thrown out of their houses last year and half the people on this planet don't have a house. Here's the secret to becoming a millionaire as fast as possible: be a sociopath. There. Now you don't have to watch this clip or Boiler Room.

What a horrendous piece of shit actor. Totally not believable. He's struggling through those lines. I feel sorry for him. He is a dingle berry in Alec Baldwin's ass.

@gtijerino What people don't understand about this movie is that they're not supposed to be 100% believable. There are people out there like this. They work at XYZ Investments in Yonkers and think they work on Wall Street. If you meet these guys, they have a false cockiness about them but inside are super insecure because they didn't go to college and know their firm is shit. Affleck (and many others in this movie) does a good job of projecting that air.
DrMBA28 1 year ago
There is a reason why Ben Affleck is a bad actor. This clip shows why...this rates amongst the worst performances ever shown in a movie...

not buying it at all from pretty-boy affleck, it's like he's reading it off the script. hell, this would have sounded more credible coming from tom cruise.
schnork 1 year ago
@schnork You hit it on the head, the entire time I was comparing him to Michael Douglas in Wall Street, and where Douglas made the killer instinct come off naturally, Affleck seems to be working way too hard.
toughbutfair32 1 year ago
It's unfortunate to Ben the amount of bias toward glengarry glen ross. He NAILED all three scenes. This was excellent acting and quite believable.
glethal85 1 year ago
Ben Afleck's acting in this clip seems forced and not believable at all. His performance is a shadow of Alec Baldwin's brilliant peformance in Glengary.
Not to mention that this speech is a direct ripoff of Glengary.

Reading the comments here.... on Affleck's performance. Well, first of all it invites immediate comparison to Alec Baldwin's performance in GlenGarry. That's a given, nobody will dispute that. Is it better? No, it is not. And i hope nobody will dispute that. Why? It's hard to pin point, really. You could say Baldwin had more to work with given that it was a Mamet script but... i don't know... Affleck didn't deliver... Baldwin did... like a fuckin executioner.
johnyard 1 year ago
@johnyard To me, its like two sides of the same coin. GlenGarry was in a different era of mentality for the salesman, and so is this movie.
If Glengarry Glen Ross was a manufacturer, then Boiler Room is a chopshop. Anyone can break a car down, but not everyone can build one.
