Good question. 

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. 

As an ex-regulatory specialist, I can state with certainty that multiple labor & workplace safety laws were ignored - egregiously.

City of God.

If I were the inspector, I'd eat the chocolate covered mushrooms and hit the boat trip first. 

Then, I'd do some flying in the bubble tube. 

The elevator blast off would be saved for the peak.

So many to mention, love the crime genre

Chinatown 

Double Indemnity 

The Friends of Eddie Coyle

LA Confidential 

A Touch of Evil

 

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

I am watching a good one now, The Two Towers. 

Part 2 of an epic trilogy about some thieving Hobbits that stole a gold ring from some dead dude - that wasn't totally dead, yet. 

Poor ******* tries his best to enact justice, but the commie hoards destroyed his property and brought his house down on him as well. 

It's a bleak world there. 

 

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

Update: turns out the hoards weren't pinkos. 

They crowned an F'n king.
