Movies like Rubber

“Rubber (2010) is a French-American 2010s dark-comedy that stages an absurd object-agency experiment in an isolated desert environment. It frames a telepathic tire's compulsive attraction as a conflict between object-animacy and public spectatorship, using set-extension, stark lighting-grammar and practical-effect work to sell the premise. Lupani: Rubber treats prop fabrication as theoretical provocation and forces a reevaluation of spectatorship mechanics.”
