Show Notes
Ben and Rob meet ‘Mank’; David Fincher’s first movie project for Netflix. Starring Gary Oldman, Amanda Seyfried and Charles Dance, this film is rarely mentioned in conversations about Fincher’s greatest films. Yet our hosts, approaching it with sheer dread, make the case that this is Fincher’s most slept-on masterpiece. Gorgeous visuals, masterful performances and an unbelievable soundtrack combine to create the best film you’ve probably never watched.
But is this tale of a cynical and disillusioned writer more personal of a story to Fincher than we know? Is Gary Oldman the perfect actor? Who really wrote ‘Citizen Kane’, often heralded as ‘The Greatest Movie Of All Time’? And has Rob done something unforgivable with Ben’s meat?
