Line 1: {{creator}} [[File:David Fincher (2012) 2 (cropped).jpg\|thumb\|350px\|David Fincher in 2012]] A filmmaker highly acclaimed for his gritty, stylish films., ~~Started~~'''David Fincher''' started out directing commercials and music videos, most notably "Vogue" by [[Madonna]]. His movies tend to be very dark, both visually and thematically, and to evoke sensations of [[Paranoia]] and [[Claustrophobia]]. Best known for ''[[Se7en]]'', ''[[Fight Club]]'', and ''[[The Social Network]]''. ---- {{examples\|Fincher's directorial efforts:}} * ''[[Alien (franchise)\|Alien 3]]'' ([[Creator Backlash\|disowned]] due to [[Executive Meddling]]) * ''[[Se7en]]'' Line 14 ⟶ 15: * ''[[The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo]]'' (2011 American adaptation) * ''[[House of Cards (British series)]]'' (Pilot of [[Cultural Translation\|American adaptation]] of the series) ----▼ ▲---- ~~=== Notable tropes in David Fincher's career and films include: ===~~ {{creatortropes}} * [[Award Bait]]: ''[[The Curious Case of Benjamin Button]]'' is generally regarded as such. * [[Berserk Button]]: '''Never''' mention ''Alien 3'' in front of this gentleman. Line 23 ⟶ 24: * [[Old Shame]]: For him at least, Alien 3. * [[Oscar Bait]]: ''[[The Curious Case of Benjamin Button]]'' was widely accused of this, [[Lighter and Softer\|a sentimental, PG-13 fantasy/drama film]] with heavy similarities to (and the same screenwriter as) ''[[Forrest Gump]]'', standing in stark contrast to the [[Darker and Edgier\|dark, edgy and subversive hard-R films]] that Fincher was known for. For better or worse, it worked: ''Benjamin Button'' received more Oscar nominations than all of Fincher's previous films combined. * [[Production Posse]]: He has repeatedly collaborated with screenwriter Andrew Kevin Walker, actor [[Brad Pitt]], cinematographer Jeff Cronenweth and ~~musician~~musicians [[Nine Inch Nails\|Trent Reznor]] and Atticus Ross. ** Jared Leto also applies to a degree. {{reflist}} {{Golden Globe Award Best Director}} ~~[[Category:Directors]]~~ [[Category:~~David Fincher~~{{PAGENAME}}]]
