...An interesting foreign flick for those who like foreign (to the US) flicks is a movie in (Mandarin) Chinese with english subtitles called "Beijing Bicycle":
Amazon link here
About a young man who goes to Beijing from a rural town to become a bike messenger and has his bike stolen. A story about his travels and people he meets while trying to recover his bike which he needs for his job (and he is working to pay off cause technically the bike is owned by the messenger company). Pretty cute story if you like foreign films and you can spot a guy with an old Mercantine Uno jersey in it too.
Not as severe as this guy's actions though!
