a view to a kill (1985)

I've seen a lot of folks dump on this one because Roger Moore is getting a little old, and for sure there are parts of it that don't hold together all that well (there are just, like, way too many bad guy lieutenants to keep track of, for one thing), but young Grace Jones and Christopher Walken are a joy to see on screen, and in my opinion this is an underrated bond entry.

Seeing Like a State by James C. Scott

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.
