Bullitt (1968)

This McQueen thriller is seriously cool, gorgeously shot, excitingly paced (for the era), but the whole time I couldn't stop thinking - why don't any of these San Francisco cops ever use radios?

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.
