      Not The Professional.
      I didn't want anyone confusing #2 for Office Space so the German part is important.

        well, i originally thought #1 might be insomnia, but i don't recall it being that popular when it came out
        #2 could be schindler's list, but they weren't really slacking.

          Schindler's List is right. His factory made almost no usable product.

                  Nope. It's from the same year as Schindler.
