What is ideology?/What is reality? -> structuralism

• inescapable – subjectivity
• capitalism – The West (Anglosphere – eh vs. Euro – rationalists re criticism)
• taken for granted as reality – Marxism
• nature vs culture
• alternative views

Every film (and every thing) is political.

• the way it is made
• capital intensive
• to critique capitalism is to engage capitalism -> the Frankfurt School -> Marxist cultural theory. (Related writers: Habermas, Benjamin, Marcuse, Adorno.)
• Does this negate the critique?
