Blow-Up (1966)
"Blow-Up" is a thought-provoking 1966 film directed by Michelangelo Antonioni. Set against the vibrant backdrop of 1960s Swinging London, it follows the life of Thomas, a talented yet disillusioned fashion photographer. Thomas navigates a world filled with fashion models, parties, and art, capturing the era's essence through his lens. His seemingly monotonous routine takes an intriguing turn when he unwittingly photographs a couple in a park.

Intrigued by the images, Thomas examines the photographs closely and becomes increasingly convinced that he has inadvertently captured evidence of a crime. His obsession with uncovering the truth intensifies, leading him on a journey filled with mystery and suspense. As he delves deeper, the boundaries between reality and perception blur, raising profound questions about the nature of truth and the reliability of visual representation.
