noise nuisance

Lynch uses unsettling sound design and industrial noise as a psychological tool to create dread and alienation in films like Eraserhead and Mulholland Drive.

Tati's films, particularly Mon Oncle and Playtime, satirize modern industrial noise and urban cacophony as symbols of dehumanization in contemporary society.

Fassbinder employs jarring sound design and acoustic dissonance to reflect social alienation and the invasive nature of surveillance and control in films like Despair.
