abstract:Tin Men is a 1987 dark comedy film written and directed by Barry Levinson, produced by Mark Johnson and starring Richard Dreyfuss, Danny DeVito and Barbara Hershey.
In Glengarry Glen Ross (ranked seventh) and TinMen (number nine), David Mamet and Barry Levinson, respectively, discovered drama in the desperation and chicanery of salesmen on commission.
The cost of such "social protection" is evident in Athens' National Park, where hundreds of wild cats and homeless men live under flowering shrubs, eating from battered tin trays.
