Really really stupid, not sure why I watched it, like "Airplane!" but british aristocracy, and also not as funny, altho there were a handful of good jokes sprinkled throughout including the excellent "i shall not, and i shwill not!".
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.
