Besides having a star studded cast acting their hearts out in really dramatic, goofy, fun scenes, this movie is also just special for telling a really strange story and breaking out of the Hollywood mold.
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.
