Le Couperet - It's a French film about a guy who looses his job of 15 years to cutbacks and downsizing. He then goes on a killing spree (btw, he's happily married with two kids) to knock off the other five guys who are vying for the same job as he is.
The irony of it all was that I caught the film at the local Cinema du Parc where I've worked for the past 7 months. The cinema, which happens to be Montreal's last English repertory cinema, is being shut down in a few weeks because of slumping box office sales and general missmanagement. Granted I don't plan on killing anyone to vent my frustrations, but it's understandable how hard it can be on some people when they lose their jobs.
Oh, and the film is quite good. Worth seeing if you can find it.
