Magic. They don't make movies like these anymore these days!
Mank has made my top three fincher movies. everything in this movie was done right, from screenplay to cinematography to actings. oh dear lord, the actings. all freaking top class. Fincher is a mastermind in writing characters and he has proven it once again. I also wanna give credit to Tuppence Middleton, an amazing RISING STAR whom I followed since Sense8.
but back to the movie, I feel like fincher is showing the bright and dark side of hollywood. a corrupt side which are filled with liars and hypocrites. but fincher wants to show, despite the liars and scumbags, there are people like Herman J. Mankiewicz, who tries and tries. writes well and lives like us, he drinks, he is full of emotions and he is faced with many roadblocks... but the director here wants us to see that in this dark chaotic hollywood, there is a light and glory which Mank reached.
Overall, great job, sir.
as long as people like you keep writing, us, cinephiles are in for a ride. thank you.
