Blue Collar (1978)

Blue Collar follows three auto-line workers backed into the corner equally by the firm and the Union, and as a result they decide to rob the union's cash holding. Thing doesn't turn out as planned, but we get a decent enough drama looking into the working class, the Union and the human effect of feeling incapable to support your family.

Richard Pryor, Harvey Keitel and Yaphet Kotto portrays the leads well, and so does the Union people and mid-level firm people as well. It's a decent story and decent told, but sadly lacks a little nerve and sting. While lacking somewhat to really be worth the experience, I still found it interesting.
