Fincher's films are before and after for actors



Aaron Sorkin said he heard David Fincher yell on set many times, "That was the best we've ever had. Perfect! Let's do it again!" Armie Hammer, who played the Winklevoss twins, took a "bite" of a hamburger at the end of one scene, but by the time he finished filming he was too full to eat anything. That's how many takes were repeated.


His perseverance and perfectionism are unparalleled, with an average of 50 takes for `` Gone Girl The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo '' (11). The direction is the complete opposite of Clint Eastwood and others.

Justin Timberlake, who played Sean Parker, the founder of Napster (a defunct music file-sharing service), added:


``If you do 88 takes, you usually get Vertigo and lose track of what you're doing.But on this set, the director's extraordinary concentration took us performers to another level.'' I felt like I was being taken away. After a day of 90 takes, I should have been physically and mentally exhausted, but it was strange that I was able to sleep soundly."


Even though Justin had some experience in movies, this was the first time his acting skills were put to the test, and Fincher's direction seemed comfortable for Justin.


When interviewed for Gone Girl, Rosamund Pike said, ``As actors, our acting changes, like ``before Fincher'' and ``after Fincher.'' However, David Fincher's ``multi-take'' may be a rite of passage or a place of training for actors.


On the other hand, Fincher is also willing to accept the ideas of the actors, and in the script, there was a scene in which Zuckerberg was supposed to jump into a pool with his friends, but Jesse Eisenberg said, ``He's not the type to do that.'' , I'm just looking at it and getting it changed.


The Social Network, in which Mark Zuckerberg is sued by two former colleagues, is based on fact, but screenwriter Aaron Sorkin meets with Zuckerberg himself. I couldn't do that.

There is an original work for "The Social Network" (therefore it won the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay), which is Ben Mezrick's non-fiction book " Facebook: The Man Who Approaches Bill Gates on the World's Largest Social Networking Network ". Fincher and Sorkin decided to make the film into a movie after a 14-page proposal they presented to a publisher was leaked online.


In other words, work on the script began before the original work was completed. Aaron Sorkin was waiting next to Ben Mezrick while he was writing in a hotel, and handed over each chapter as it was written.
