Los Angeles, "a city whose mystery resides in being just a pattern of continuous, artificial traffic over a sprawling area that doesn't carry any dimensions or spaces."

Los Angeles, "une ville dont le mystère est justement de n'être plus qu'un réseau de circulation incessante, irréelle -- ville d'une étendue fabuleuse, mais sans espace, sans dimensions."

Where's the ban on any & all subsidies to the fossil fuel industry?
Where's the ban om motorway expansions?
Where's the regulatory changes to dramatically shrink the sales of trucks & SUVs?

It's always #walkable, with rare exception*. Even from the up-above shots where they don't need to be frugal on set design, the place is walkable. It's like we can't even imagine a world where sprawl is the default. It's easy to say that that's just #fiction and things happen differently in the real world. But even in the real world, #sprawl is unique.
