"Diamond Men". Excellent movie!

[bif]

Eddie (Robert Forster) is an aging traveling diamond salesman who faces demotion when his company's new management deems him too high risk for carrying their gems. His final assignment -- training inexperienced rookie salesman Bobby (Donnie Wahlberg) -- brings an unexpected change. Although the relationship between the two men gets off to a less than amiable start, they eventually find that each has something valuable to offer the other.

1. Forester is one of my favorite actors.

His role in Jackie Brown is marvelous..as is that film.

3. Another winner, bif!

Just got done watching it and loved it! The ending made me laugh out loud!

You're a lot better at picking movies than I am! Watched "Diminished Capacity" last night and was disappointed...good cast but the story line got kinda silly.

Keep recommending!

Thanks.

edit: Watched it last night. Was a tough slog for me. I found the characters and situation unlikable. Probably has something to do with my dislike of door to door sales. Did like Forrester's character though and thought the movie around him was a little too grim.

7. Diamond Men

Funny was reasonable, and the tale was very much something different and relaxing.but I obviously had difficulties relating/identifying with figures.
