David Mamet altered the original ending of the play when writing the
movie. In the play, Roma (Al Pacino) flatters Shelley (Jack Lemon) and
suggests that the two work together. Then, when Shelley leaves the room,
Roma turns on Shelley and reveals that his flattery was only a con to get a
share of Shelley's sales. In the movie, this last-second turn is omitted, and
Roma's flattery is assumed to be sincere.
