Scholars, on the other hand, see the film as attack on the "conformity" and "compulsory consumption" brought about by Silvio Berlusconi's media society within a discussion of Roberto Benigni's roots in the Commedia dell'arte and a reflection on the often repeated comparison of Benigni with Buster Keaton."
