Inspired by the other movie thread. And your mum.

For example:

Pretty Woman - Actually a story about a money-centric prostitute who lands the best deal ever by conning a multimillionaire into marrying her

Shawshank Redemption - Actually about a wife killer who manages to escape and evade justice through his psychopathic charisma

Total Recall - Ordinary man asks for spy holiday implant, gets it and lives it out in his head

MOAR?

See you in 500 repliiiiiiiiiies
