Der 3. Weltkrieg (1998)
Excellent pseudo-documentary about the ultimate nightmare
I stumbled upon this on Youtube and was blown away (no pun intended). I've always been fascinated with the Cold War, and this effort did not disappoint. Amazing editing makes for a tension-filled and engrossing watch.
Waiting... (2005)
Pretty Good View of the Job
With serving being one of the most common jobs in the country, I'm surprised that this is the first mainstream movie about it. I actually worked at a Bennigan's when it came out, and was glad we didn't take any flak from customers who had seen it. Although some details were a bit far-fetched (the game, the busboys), most of the goings-on were true to life - we had a girl who would hold quick make-out sessions in the dish pit and there was a cook just like Dane Cook's character. I personally trained a girl who was so zonked on some substance that she would zone out when waiting to get on a register. There were a few things that were left out or glazed over - hosting can be just as demanding as waiting, and nearly EVERYONE smokes (shoulda been more scenes of breaks!) - but everyone who has done the job can attest to the crazy things that can go on. I personally think everyone should do it for a little while to learn some humility, as well as to meet interesting individuals. And for all you "civilians" who were wondering and worrying - very few meals get messed with.
