The French Dispatch (2021)

Wes Anderson reaches new levels of Wes Anderson in this series of challenging but uneven vignettes framed by a cutesy random story about a newspaper, and I’m totally here for it.

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.
