Steve Cutts and Banksy are both artists working in the same time period, but with very different views and outlooks on life, Banksy appears to be very political and has a lot to say, he comes across as a very determined person with a very opinionated attitude, because we know very little about Banksy or his identity, may we assume that he is of working class background and that he uses his art as a platform to voice his opinion and to change the way people think. Cutts on the other hand is…

Using words like “mindless” and “subversive” to describe the industry as a whole, Gabler makes his strong opposition of entertainment apparent. The title of his book suggests his opinion that life itself was starting to become entertainment of its own, as some people were severely impacted by movies that were considered immoral by many. A wide range of…
