DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Francis Ford Coppola → United States

His films 'A Single Man' and 'Nocturnal Animals' critique luxury and consumerism through visual elegance while exploring how material obsession masks deeper existential voids.

Spike Jonze → United States

Through works like 'Her' and music videos, Jonze examines how consumer technology and fashion shape identity and relationships in contemporary society.

Wong Kar-wai → Hong Kong

His visually sumptuous films like 'In the Mood for Love' and 'Chungking Express' use fashion, style, and consumer culture as metaphors for desire, memory, and the search for meaning.
