Color me impressed. I thought this was awesome. Rarely have I seen movie make such blatant references to some theories that are highly prolific in criminology, i.e. the name of the main character, Detective Foucault – he’s clearly named after Michel Foucault, though not a criminologist himself has greatly influenced criminology. Also, The Bentham Grid, named after Jeremy Bentham, who in criminology is extremely important for the theory of the Panopticon (which is closely related to this Bentham Grid).
Anyway, just watch this short. It’s awesome.
Let me know what you think!
