The David Fincher Show

In 2002, David Fincher directed Jodie Foster and Kristen Stewart to star in the "Thriller Room" crime thriller film. It is another film that hints at the complexity of people's hearts, the evil and desires hidden in their hearts, and is also an indispensable element of modern thrillers. The film tells the story of the divorced heroine and her daughter living in a four-storey old house. In the old house, she accidentally found a closed dark room. On the night of check-in, three gangsters broke into the old house, and the mother and daughter fled into the secret room in a panic, but they didn't know that the gangster's target was hidden in the secret room. If you leave the secret room, you will face the most vicious gangsters, and if you leave the secret room, you will just sit and wait. Faced with this dilemma, how should the mother and daughter escape?
The film has an unmistakable David Fincher style, and is what he does best: a claustrophobic world, a metaphor for a danger of isolation, and the use of many weird camera angles and a gloomy atmosphere to reinforce the psychological sense of fear. . An isolated house, a lonely individual, darkness, conspiracy, violence, the deep old house is full of danger and murder. In this lonely space that seems to be unknown, the closure seems to be more terrifying than the external danger.

    If you just look at the title and poster, you must think it is a psychological horror movie, and you won't watch it, but in fact, it is just a more tense secret room movie. There is no horror element at all, and it is not suspenseful, but it makes people very nervous. The heroine is brave, resourceful and super powerful. I didn't realize that the little girl was actually Kristen Stewart. She was so cute when she was a child, and she was very T at that time.

    Vinci likes to play tricks. For example, there are all kinds of long and long shots in this film, which are still very handsome~~ Seeing this kind of stupid thief always has a little more comedy element, but Judy Foster is really good-looking, this This kind of role is also suitable for her~ The Twilight Girl as a child feels that the drama is more reliable than now. . . I love Vinci~~!
