DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Michael Haneke Austria

His films like 'Funny Games' and 'The Seventh Continent' obsessively examine how voyeurism and surveillance implicate the viewer in violence and violation of privacy.

 Brian De Palma United States

His thriller masterpieces 'Blow Out' and 'Body Double' make the act of watching—spying, obsessive observation—central to exploring the morality of curiosity.
