Altho it’s sorta funny they didn’t manage to get this movie out on the centennial of its titular date, it is a pretty effective war story with a very technically interesting “one shot” technique that adds a bit of glamor to the whole situation.
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.
