Dramas That Critique Technology/Modern-Life


If it was made in 1950, it should critique THAT period.. If it's made today, maybe it critiques the phones, dehumanization, loss of privacy, etc etc..

Especially the great movies :)

Trust (2010)
I don't have kids but if I had them I would make them watch this movie before I gave them a phone or tablet. It's basically a parent's worst nightmare in the internet age.
