Being There (1979) is a quietly unsettling satire that unfolds with the simplicity of a fable and the precision of a scalpel. Directed by Hal Ashby and adapted from Jerzy Kosiński’s novel, the film uses its unassuming premise to expose how perception, language, and media can distort reality itself.
