    I really don't understand how is it that your videos haven't gathered more views and your channel more subscribers. Your Kubrick videos are very thorough, and the on location videos are very insightful. Thank you for doing so much research and presenting it this well, looking forward to see more!

    Here is a film like Citizen Kane where the director of photography did as much as the director to create the story. It is the first film I remember be shot with the skip bleach process and I remember watch all of Darius Khondji test footage as he played with the process going from 100% to 10% skip bleach until he and Fincher agreed on one that look best. That is what makes every shot dark no matter show it is lit. It is hard to believe that all the exterior shot were done in downtown Las Angeles. The car ride they take on the raid was shot on a sunny day with sprinkle pour water on the car as it was towed through downtown. It is a visual masterpiece.

    I noticed at 2:30 in this clip montage someone passes in front of Brad Pitt wearing a red leather jacket almost like Tyler Durden's from Fight Club.

    No yet any other serial killer at the level of Se7en. Cause gives you a haunting imagination rather show it....

    I’d not even viewed any trailers whatsoever before going the Cinema to see Se7en on its opening day release & it’s a movie 🎥7👁👁 🍿 that really kept u on edge & wondering where or what next? Brilliant 🤩

    When "opening" is used for 'Se7en' *Kyle Cooper's* title sequence comes to mind first.
    'Se7en' came after David Fincher's dud 'Alien 3'. Is there an undercurrent how your movie analyses are connected ?

    Where can I find all that behind the scenes B-roll? Is it on dvd/bluray?

    • @CinemaTyler
      @CinemaTyler  7 років тому

      The B-roll was from a promo thing on the DVD. I used almost all of the B-roll they included in it. I wish there was more!

    Can you tell me the name of the music playing in the background?

    • @CinemaTyler

      I believe it is "Air on the G String" by Bach.

    This felt rushed and undeveloped, like you didn't know the exact depth you were trying to convey. Maybe choose a governing idea next time and be more focused

      Thanks for the feedback. This is a video I made for Indie Wire last year. Hopefully I've gotten better in the meantime!

    You forgot how it was influenced by Stan Brakhage (credits-wise)

    was there a subliminal gay thing tween the 2 detectives?
    read that in a french review magazine

    • @CinemaTyler
      @CinemaTyler  7 років тому +3

      Interesting take. I'd be curious to read that article.

      I've watched the movie 4 times, never got that feeling.

      LOL what? Goddamn French and their degenerate fantasies. Don't forget the biggest degenerate in history, the Marquis De Sade, came from France.

      If you're referring to the behind the scenes clips I used, there was a fair amount of ghosting on the clips before I ripped them. It was from some television promo just after the movie was released.
