DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Federico Fellini Italy

His films like 'Ginger and Fred' explicitly parody media spectacle and entertainment culture, including broadcast performances and their theatrical absurdity.

 Jacques Tati France

His films, particularly 'Playtime,' satirize modern mass communication and entertainment through visual comedy that deconstructs how media and technology mediate human experience.
