The Lindbergh baby kidnapping case and investigation used many resources, as many as were available at the time, but if compared to today’s advancements and procedures it was very little. There were some inconsistencies that occurred between the investigation and the eventual sentencing of the suspect, Bruno Richard Hauptmann, primarily that there was no real opportunity for him to be the kidnapper. There was a special set of circumstances that brought about the kidnapping, namely being that the Lindbergh’s were not supposed to be at their home in Hopewell, NJ at the time of the kidnapping, instead due to the baby being sick they stayed in Hopewell not returning to Morrow, breaking their normal routine. It is possible that the kidnapping was a

Set in a not-so-distant, yet post-apocalyptic future, Snowpiercer follows Curtis Everett, a lower-class man rebelling against an indomitable ideological regime, as humanity 's last survivors circle the frozen globe, divided by class, in one, long train. The world of Snowpiercer is built upon a society in which inequality reigns and violence is routine, and where the needs of the poor are eschewed in favor of the desires of the rich. Director Bong Joon-Ho adeptly weaves black humor with fast-paced dramatic action, and utilizes the Marxist concepts of hegemony, interpellation, and commodity as spectacle, in order to paint a cautionary picture of a continuously capitalist future. The State in Snowpiercer relies upon a deeply entrenched ruling ideology that can be summed up by Minister Mason 's 7-Minute speech beginning with "This is not a shoe."
