Joe Manganiello, Nick Krause, Elena Kampouris, James Bloor, and Helena Howard in Shoplifters of the World (2021)

Trivia

Shoplifters of the World

Edit
The title song plays in the tenth minute.
The film is chock packed with metaphors and title references. When Sheila says to Billy, "Oh Denver, so much to answer for" a line from Suffer Little Children (with Manchester replacing Denver), about the Moors murders in the 1960s. The actual title of the song is also a clever double entendre quoting with a bible verse in which Jesus says "Suffer the little children..."
While the song The Queen is Dead is playing, a man at the party is reading a book with that title.
When Dean points his gun saying that he could murder his boss it's a nod to "Girlfriend in a Coma" ("There were times when I could have murder her").
When Dean says he'll do something that will go to musical history it's a nod to Smiths' "Frankly, Mr. Shankly" ("I want to go down in musical history").
