I'm nominating two current ones:
"American Gangster", walked out of the theatre wondering if I've been blissfully ignorant of how corrupt our law enforcement/judicial system is, and how it undermines our society.
"Gone Baby, Gone", Surprised that I saw "no gray area", in distinguishing "right from wrong" in the "hero's" key decision, and even more surprised that my wife did....
....and a recent one:
"The Departed", walked out of the theatre wondering if I've been blissfully ignorant of how corrupt our law enforcement/judicial system is, and how it undermines our society.... yet viewing "American Gangster" elicited the same reaction, only more strongly, and, as if for the first time....
