It is no longer the machine that goes wrong and goes mad, like the feeding-machine in Modern Times, it is the cold rationality of the autonomous technical object which reacts on the situation and ravages the set: not just the electronic house and the lawn-mowers in It's Only Money, but the caddies who destroy the self-service (The Disorderly Orderly) and the Hoover that devours everything in the shop, goods, clothes, customers and wallpaper (Who's Minding the Store). [Deleuze Cinema 2, 1989: 63b]
Ce n'est plus la machine qui se dérègle et devient folle, comme la machine à nourrir des «Temps modernes », c'est la froide rationalité de l'objet technique autonome qui réagit sur la situation et ravage le décor : non seulement la maison électronique et les tondeuses à gazon dans « It's only money », mais les caddies qui détruisent le libre-service ( « The disorderly orderly ») et l'aspirateur qui dévore tout dans le magasin, marchandises, vêtements, clients, revêtement mural ( « Who's minding the store »). [Deleuze Cinéma 2, 1985: 89a.b]
