Layer Cake	comment	Layer Cake is a 2004 British crime film directed by Matthew Vaughn, and based on the 2000 novel of the same name by J.J. Connolly, who also wrote the script.A not-so-legal London businessman (Daniel Craig), planning for an early retirement, gets in slightly over his head during one final drug deal. Things quickly escalate, until our protagonist gets double-crossed, loses control and, as they say across the pond, everything goes tits up.Layer Cake is a clever, character-driven take on the classic gangster flick, rounded out by a brief romance, black comedy, genuinely unexpected twists, and an overload of Britishisms. The star-studded cast features a plethora of British celebs, some of whom were already famous before this flick, and some having struck fame worldwide after the film, particularly our protagonist.

Layer Cake / int_22cf536c	comment	Chekhov's Gun: The gun Gene gives the narrator is a literal example. The narrator uses it to kill Jimmy, assuming that it will be untraceable. It turns out that Gene used the gun to kill a briefly mentioned Posthumous Character. When the police reveal that the same gun was used in both murders, Gene realizes that the narrator killed Jimmy. In the book, a bunch of rejected sex toys for Mortimer's money-laundering porn shop become unexpectedly important when the gang accidentally takes the boxes containing those sex toys to their drug deal with Eddie while leaving behind the boxes with the drugs. This allows them to recoup their losses when Eddie steals the boxes they brought to him at gunpoint. This is averted in the movie, where the gang knows that Eddie will double-cross them from the start, bring the right boxes, and then have the Liverpool gang ambush Eddie's men as they take the drugs away.

The rest of the gang panicked, feeling certain that the cops wouldn't believe the story of Jerry's suicide and would think that everyone at the party conspired to kill him. So they sent Morty to dispose of the body, and he was caught in the act. Ironically, the cops did accept the story behind Jerry's suicide, but Morty still went to prison for several years for unlawful disposal of a body.

Also, in the book, one of the gangsters owns a sex shop and has a practice of telling someone asking for child porn to come back later that night, at which point they will be ambushed and beaten to a pulp. After seeing their stolen ecstasy's holdout busted by the cops, the Serbs let X live. Granted, they don't know the bust was staged by X, but the idea is that they don't prolong bloodfeuds for a lost cause.
