Zodiac

Many films examine the nature of evil, but David Fincher's 2007 Zodiac portrays evil as unknowable, without a motive or even a face. Mike and Dan discuss Fincher's understanding of just what happens when people sit in the dark to watch a film about murder and how he teases his viewers--who know from the start that the case is unsolved--with the promise of filmic resolution.  Zodiac might not be a perfect film or even Fincher's best, but it's certainly interesting and a film that grows upon the viewer. So turn on "The Hurdy-Gurdy Man" and then give this episode a listen!   Please subscribe to the show wherever you get your podcasts and follow us on YouTube, Twitter and Letterboxd.
