The movie industry doesn't just tell stories. It consumes them. And nowhere is that clearer than in a black comedy noir and a satirical comedy TV series released thirty years apart. 

The Studio and The Player strip away the glitz and glam to reveal a cycle of belief, betrayal, and self-mythology. Celluloid itself is both the art and the ammunition. The industry…a passion and a poison. Side by side, the two projects reveal a system where the script (or, in this case, the posters) changes, but the machine itself doesn't.
