When a new set of leads find their way to the office, the Glengarry leads, the office manager refuses to let go of them which forces someone to break into the office and steal them, resulting in some startling repercussions for everyone in the office.

That same night, one of the older salesmen, Shelley Levene (Jack Lemmon), who is very close to being fired and really needs money for his sick daughter at the hospital, is having a lot of trouble with his two old leads, who are almost impossible to close.

Pacino's charismatic Ricky Roma seems to be an arrogant, big mouthed egocentric, and yet later we see that he seems to genuinely care about the woes of Arkin's George, and truly admires and respects Lemmon's Shelley.

Al Pacino was rightly nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, as he is undeniably magnetic as office hot-shot Ricky Roma, who's "Where did you learn your sales?"
