Civil Servants on the Silver Screen

Hollywood's Depiction of Government and Bureaucrats

This book demonstrates how government bureaucracy is portrayed in the top ten box office grossing films from 2000-2015. Perhaps unsurprisingly, government is generally portrayed poorly, but individual government bureaucrats are typically depicted positively.
