The first one I thought of when I saw this thread, **Brazil** , has been mentioned a couple of times… but I’ll give it a big thumbs up as well. Some of the already recommended ones that I will also back up are, **Arsenic and Old Lace** , **Bedazzled** (Moore/Cook version), **After Hours** and **Kind Hearts and Coronets**.

Some others that haven’t been mentioned…
