Mank-- A Small Character in the Background of the Big Era
The story of an idealist who stumbled and survived in the chaotic Hollywood of the 1930s. A small character in the background of the big era. After reading it, he only felt that his mind was empty, and he looked around at a loss. He seemed to understand a little bit, but he knew that it was just all a lie. At the very least, I'm glad I decided to watch Citizen Kane before seeing this film; it's a little background knowledge; otherwise, I'd be stubborn after writing the script...

View Perspective | He uses "Mank" to trace the Hollywood past behind "Citizen Kane"
"When I was 7 years old, my father used to explain his point of view to me and introduced a lot of film concepts to me, so I thought at that age that film was going to be my life's work." - Big David Finch

Finch has a knack for making big stories small, but not so delicate
As a director who has entered the film industry from advertising, David Fincher is undoubtedly standing opposite Ridley Scott. It's not purely because the latter is the only N-generation veteran of Hollywood epic movies, but Finch is more than obsessive-compulsive-like exquisite, in fact, there is a kind of film that can make any subject matter " The ability to be small", aesthetic, or impulsive. I'm not here to summarize his career, and I don't want to recall that "Alien",...

The production is too delicate, the lighting is too beautiful, and many small techniques restore the texture of the film very well, although I feel that the film noise is a bit deliberate (but fortunately it seems to be only used in the relatively dark part of the picture), watching it at the door of the house In the part where the car came and went, the characters seemed to be pasted on the front of the screen, and the background was like a painting added later. It had the plastic taste of the...

How many such Hollywood narcissistic nostalgic films have Netflix received... It might not be possible to have Alan Sorkin in the mouthpiece part. This kind of annoying male protagonist should be watching from the sidelines, talented and sharp, but he was written as a cynic. The gangster... and the key problem is that even if his leg is broken, it is difficult to earn sympathy (so the point of the play is to be bad???), which is really a question of value. The fact that the right-wing concocted...

The story behind Citizen Kane, the Austrian fans are estimated to be so angry that the screenwriter award under the heavy resistance is an invisible affirmation to Manke. It's just that there are too many capital stories in Hollywood factories, and the big screenwriters are just hard-working workers. There is a sentence in Mayer's film that tells the truth. The only star of MGM is Lyon the...

I don't know if it's because of the cold, but my head hurts. I feel that Don Quixote is not David Lynch's style, and he is more suitable for making Psycho Killer. He is not the opponent of the Coen brothers and the Nolan brothers for this kind of screenwriter's...

Charles Lederer: Sorry. Somebody told me Mankiewicz was in here.
Joe Mankiewicz: He is. I'm the promising brother, Joe.
Charles Lederer: I didn't know Herman had a brother.
Joe Mankiewicz: Neither does anyone else. Let me guess. "There are millions to be made, and your only competition is idiots," stop.
Charles Lederer: How did you know?
Joe Mankiewicz: I hate to tell you, anyone who can rub three words together and make a sentence gets one.
