The previously mentioned movies, Inception and The Matrix, use new media to appear "futuristic". However, there is one old-fashioned object that is used - in an quite unusual manner - appearing in both movies: the mirror. Nevertheless, the mirror is applied in different ways. The movie Inception which was produced by Christopher Nolan, uses the mirror as a symbol to depict the "borders of ones mind". Whereas Leonardo Di Caprio is able to see himself multiple times, the student Ariadne only sees one reflection of herself.
The movie The Matrix is using the mirror in an allegorical way, because it seems to be the border between the matrix and the real world.
