How to Steal a Million (1966)

I enjoyed this slightly silly Audrey Hepburn romcom, with its early-60s vibe and its European flair, and it had some good laughs, but it lacks a deep center, it's all periphery, there's nothing all that interesting at its heart and it doesn't fully hold together.

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.
