Zodiac

David Fincher’s Zodiac, I’m not his fan. The first few letters of the film are as if they were typed out from a printer, so I naturally thought of "The Seven Deadly Sins", which is really consistent in style. The film describes a serial homicide in the United States that has not yet been achieved. There is a lot of information on the Internet, and the directors are happy to remake it. I have seen another director filmed in 2005 on a long-distance bus during the Spring Festival last year. It's just that the IMDB score I saw this time was 8.1, and the version in 2005 was 5.4, which is horrible. In my opinion, David Fincher did not focus on how to solve puzzles and reasoning, but a detailed description of a cartoonist’s obsession with this case. In fact, I prefer to use the term obsession, and the real hero of the case has always been Did not appear. PS: The acting skills of the small broken arm are really good.

Zodiac quotes

  • Melvin Belli: Inspector Toschi.

    [holds up bloodied shirt piece]

    Melvin Belli: It is my belief that this is a window into this man's soul. Killing is his compulsion. Even though he tries to ignore it, it drives him. It's in his blood.

    Dave Toschi: Maybe. Or maybe he just likes the attention.

  • [Graysmith visits with Ken Narlow in Napa]

    Robert Graysmith: Does the name Rick Marshall mean anything to you?

    Ken Narlow: [it does] What are you after?

    Robert Graysmith: What have you got?

    Ken Narlow: Hypothetically, you just named my favorite suspect in the whole case. This is off the record. Couple of years back, I was trying to get Marshall's prints. I handed him a photo. He looks at it. He's about to give it back and he says, "My goodness, I got fingerprints all over this." And he wipes them off.

    Robert Graysmith: Why didn't you test him for handwriting?

    Ken Narlow: Because when they finally did run his prints... they cleared him against the one in Stine's cab.

    Robert Graysmith: So it's not him?

    Ken Narlow: Maybe yes, maybe no.

    Robert Graysmith: No? What do you mean?

    Ken Narlow: Zodiac left gloves behind at the scene. If he had the foresight to bring gloves with him, how the hell's he gonna accidentally leave a print behind?

    Robert Graysmith: But it was in the victim's blood.

    Ken Narlow: Could have been one of the bystanders, or a cop just reaches out... Boom. False print.

    Robert Graysmith: But that print disqualified 2,500 suspects.

    Ken Narlow: Which is why we used handwriting.

    Robert Graysmith: But not for Rick Marshall.

    Ken Narlow: S.F.P.D. saw a handwritten sign in the window of his house, decided it looked nothing like the Z letters, so they moved on.

    Robert Graysmith: How do they know Rick Marshall wrote the sign?

    Ken Narlow: [smiles] My thoughts exactly. Rick Marshall was a Navy man. He received code training. He was also a projectionist at a silent film theater.

    Robert Graysmith: How do I get a copy of Rick Marshall's handwriting?

    Ken Narlow: Three ways. One, get a warrant; which you can't. Two, get him to volunteer; which he won't.

    Robert Graysmith: Yeah, and three?

    Ken Narlow: Get creative.
