DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Stanley Kubrick United States

His films like *Full Metal Jacket* and *Dr. Strangelove* systematically deconstruct military hierarchy, discipline, and the absurdity of protocol through darkly satirical and unflinching examinations.

 Akira Kurosawa Japan

Films such as *Ran* and *The Hidden Fortress* explore military command structures, loyalty codes, and the rigid protocols that govern samurai and feudal military society.
