That movie is also interesting for showing the metric obsessed dissolution of Operational Research.

Actually I haven't watched it for a long time. Thanks for reminding me - it was a pivotal movie. And by the Boulting Twins!

Oh no, don't tell me we have to Film blog these ;-)

However we could package it as 'The Origins of Anglo Disease' or 'Europe.was.doomed' and get a whole other audience. ;-)
