This vietnam doc came out right after the war and it’s frequently an engrossing time capsule look at the way people back then thought and felt about the war - but be warned, it’s also filled with incredibly heavy, violent footage.
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.
