10 Movies Directors Didn't Want You To Understand

Quentin Dupieux's satirical horror film about a rubber tire coming to life and exploding people's heads is a monument to the absurdity of both art and life.

Rubber literally opens with a monologue which claims that "all great films, without exception, contain an important element of 'no reason.' And you know why? Because life itself is filled with 'no reason.'"

The opening speech also defines the film as an "homage to 'no reason,'" but beyond that, Dupieux leaves viewers fumbling around for any wider meaning.

Though some have interpreted Rubber as a commentary on the nature of cinema itself, the clear audience directive from the outset is to embrace its generally nonsensical series of events, and accept that not everything needs a clear-cut explanation.
