End Credits #321 - November 15, 2023 (The Killer)

This week on End Credits, we don't have any feelings. That's the aesthetic - some people say - of David Fincher, and it's pretty much a theme of his new movie, The Killer. On this show, it's going to be all Fincher, all the time as we draft the director's best works, and then we will dive into his new entry, which you can now stream on Netflix, and see if it's worthy of future "Best of" lists.

This Wednesday, November 15, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Candice Lepage will discuss:

The Fincher Draft. For over 30 years, David Fincher has been making some of the most talked about movies, stylish and innovative, while tapping into some of the most creative talent in Hollywood below the line. But he's not just about movies, Fincher has applied his talent to music videos, commercials, and, in the Netflix era, a slate of TV shows. So before we talk about his new movie, we will spend the first part of this week's show drafting Fincher's very best work.

REVIEW: The Killer (2023). You know the story, a professional killer, meticulous and thorough in his craft, screws up that one hit that forces him to reckon with his job and his role in a cold, indifferent world. Except this time, the director is David Fincher and the killer is played by Michael Fassbender. In his twelfth film, The Killler, Fincher tests your assumptions about what this type of thriller can look like while still bringing that same tension and atmosphere that Fincher is famous for. Having said that though, milage may vary, so what do we think about The Killer?

End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.
