This is a fun and frequently hilarious romantic comedy about some stupid rich people, but watching Walter Matthau play a bumbling (and maybe closeted?) rich loser was the real treat, since I'm so much more used to him as the hard boiled detective.
This historical treatise has a lot of notoriety but I found it unnecessarily dense, and ultimately flawed, in that its focus on states and state power ignores a related discussion of capitalist power, such that altho there is a useful perspective to glean here about how a drive for social legibility can transform a society, I wouldn't recommend the book overall.
