If you loved Heist, try House of Games

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by David Mamet, and they both carry the paranoid mood tag, and they sit in Crime / Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Heist, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What House of Games is

Seattle night. A dropped coin. Doctor Margaret Ford, a best-selling author, seeks to understand her patient's addiction. Instead, she finds herself drawn into an underworld of deception and high-stakes manipulation. Mamet's directorial debut echoes his stagecraft.
