**This podcast was recorded during the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Without the labor of the writers and actors currently on strike, the movies being covered here wouldn’t exist.
I wouldn’t say that I love David Fincher as a filmmaker, but the films of his I love, I really love. Of those films, few have my affection more than his 1997 thriller, “The Game”. This is one of those movies I’ve wanted to discuss for a while- and I missed it for its 25th anniversary- but with Fincher having a new film coming out later this year, the time seemed right to finally talk about this film. (It also provides a good complimentary episode to my Frankenheimer episode earlier in the month.) Joining me to discuss the film is Carlo from The Movie Loot podcast, which will have its own Fincher discussion soon. I hope you enjoy!
The closing piece is “Jamie”, composed by Brian Skutle, from his original score for the short film “Jamie?”.
