Manhattan Murder Mystery (1993), directed by Woody Allen.
I've been wanting to rewatch this film for some time now and it was on tv last night. It's a good Allen movie, occasionally brilliant, but here and there I tends to cross the border and go from subtle comedy to farce. And that's when it gets a bit too hysterical for my personal taste. But overall I enjoyed it a lot.

They had temporarily escaped the factories, the warehouses, the slaughterhouses, the car washes - they'd be back in captivity the next day but now they were out - they were wild with freedom. They weren't thinking about the slavery of poverty. Or the slavery of welfare and food stamps. The rest of us would be all right until the poor learned how to make atom bombs in their basements.
