There’s a fire, and a piano is burned- that's okay as telling the story demands it in a movie. (I also believe that some among them would burn a fake piano rather than a real one. I may be wrong here.)
But stating that all those beautiful things "deserve" to be replaced by a thin silicon 3k USD machine by literally destroying them in an industrial crusher?
That's different.
The same Apple destroyed the Big Brother some decades ago in a commercial. The sense of irony!
(Also, a car is a car. The world doesn't share Americans' obsession and weird relationships with cars. A photographer's camera, a musician's guitar are more important.)
The car is an example of something that I think of as art in the same way you think of a camera. I’m sure they have destroyed many pianos for movies, shows, theatre, etc.
The world doesn’t share your own obsession and weird relationships with a camera and a guitar.
You can capture beautiful moments with a camera- photography is a work of art. Movie cameras, too. Kurosawa, Ray, and Tarkovsky created absolutely amazing frames with cameras.
What do you create with a car? Amazing driving patterns?
