Sometimes, the choice of what to explore has been sensationalistic, preferring to pursue exciting new frontiers instead of areas of space where collecting more data would allow us to make useful determinations.

An example is when Antonia rides his bicycle to hang up posters and advertisements for the cinema. A large image of the American film star Rita Hayworth provides an ironic and telling contrast between the glamour and wealth of Hollywood and America and the lives of the ordinary people in postwar Italy (Ebert, 1999).
