this is a reactionary movie even above and beyond the normal cop movie tropes, from the way it queer-codes the villain to the overall "good strong men don't need to follow the rules" vibe - so why do I like it so much?
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.
