The Pursuit of Happyness (2006) has to be up there. The inciting incident is Will Smith going to Wall Street and seeing all the happy, smiling rich people walking out of the New York Stock Exchange, and deciding he wants to be like them. There is no irony in this or in any other scene; pursuing a finance-bro internship at all costs is portrayed literally and uncritically as the "happyness" in the title. The entire rest of the movie is a masturbatory hustle-culture fantasy in which Will Smith having to do things like being homeless, sleeping in subway bathrooms, kissing the asses of as many banking executives as possible, and foregoing feeding or clothe his kindergarten-age son are portrayed not as indictments of the system but as evidence of Smith's smart, bootstraps-oriented thinking. The rich people throughout the movie are jovial and well-adjusted, always willing to give a smart guy like Smith a shot (but only when they see his plucky bootstrappiness firsthand, which they only do once he insistently fellates them first); meanwhile, all poor people are miserable, underhanded slimeballs who are nothing but trouble for Smith. This movie is the Mein Kampf of liberalism.
What else?
The King's Speech: can the unelected monarch who has the title thrust upon him after his brother gives up on the whole song and dance to marry an American divorcee (oldtimey gasp) get over his stutter in time to deliver the speech needed to give the Brits the pluck they need to win WWII?
he was ousted as it was feared his intense nazi sympathies might extend so far as leaking critical info to them to help them win the war. The American divorcee also a massive nazi
Interesting, definitely not how it gets played in the film
it's largely swept under the rug the extent to which the British aristocracy loved Hitler. Remains the day is a pretty good film about it
a shocking number of British aristocrats have strong family ties to high ranking SS figures
Inbred Germans liking fascism you say?
how the fuck are you analysing the aristocracies love of fascism through a lens other than class
Idk about this one. The monarchy/ww2 backdrop definitely makes it sus, but at its core it's a character drama about a man struggling with a (minor) disability and the insecurity that comes with it.
Maybe I'm being too generous, but I haven't watched it in a while.
