What's the fourth wall? 🤔
The fourth wall is the imaginary barrier that separates actors from the audience. They know it’s there, we know it’s there. But the wall sustains the fiction; it keeps them out of our world, and us from theirs.
To break the fourth wall is to disrupt the fiction.
In film, it’s when the actor acknowledges the audience for comedic or dramatic effect, sometimes probing their conscience during a moral dilemma.
For example, in The Irishman, Robert De Niro breaks the fourth wall by looking directly at the camera more than 5 times during a moral conflict. As a result, the audience is not only confronted but implicated by simply bearing witness.
