Watching the movie, "Saboteur" on TCM. Directed by Alfred Hitchcock. I recommend it. Plenty of themes of the masses being asleep while corruption lies beneath the thin top layer. I also find it interesting this was released in 1942, meaning the concept of the story existed well before the end of WWII. The segment at the Sutton Mansion reminded me of "Eyes Wide Shut" without the sex. Would like to find a good analysis of this movie. Will post if I find one.
Saboteur (1942) Los Angeles aircraft worker Barry Kane evades arrest after he is unjustly accused of sabotage. Following leads, he travels across the country to New York City trying to clear his name by exposing a gang of fascist-supporting saboteurs led by apparently respectable Charles Tobin. Along the way, he involves Pat Martin, eventually preventing another major act of sabotage. They finally catch up with Frank Fry, the man who actually committed the act of sabotage at the aircraft factory.
