The theme for this week’s Monday Movie Meme is based my 2014 A-to-Z Challenge post on Letter L, about whether love is necessary to make great art. Given that it’s about love, I figure we might as well flip the script: A Thin Line between Love and Hate. Here are my selections for this week’s Monday Movie Meme.
Share on your blog or in the comments section, movies featuring characters who hate their jobs.
On the Waterfront
Although this is the first movie that came to mind when I thought of this week’s theme, I wonder if it still counts; given that some workers don’t hate their job per se – they hate the union controlling their jobs.
Heat
There are some scenes in this movie involving a guy who works as a short-order cook (he’s on parole or something, right?) who can’t stand his job.
What movies have YOU seen that feature people who hate their jobs?
