Beautifully and cleverly shot, full of that mid 70s grit and verve that I love so much, but also deep, confusing, moving, with a couple very strong characters - this bizarro-detective film noir story should be famous!
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.
