My favorite director

                                                     Favorite director
My favorite director would have to be David Fincher. Davids most famous, not to mention my favorite cinematography hit would have to be Fight Club. Fight club gains a much deserved 10th place on IMDb list of the top 250 movies, although for my own list it would come close to championing it. Its kind of naive and stupid that i'd brand my favorite director from just one movie- but i don't know any other director- not Spielberg, not Nolan, not even Cameron who could have pulled off such a blockbuster success. I don't think there's one person on this earth who could bring insomniac office worker. Fight club generated $100.9 million at the box office alone, so who isn't to say that Fincher is a living representation of complete success. 


together the fragmented themes of fight club in such a successful manner. The plot twist Fincher devised was unforeseen and his talented directing allowed one mans mind and mentality to form the main enigma of the film. The audience almost felt like they were inside the head of our narrator who was in fact also (SPOILER ALERT) Tyler Durden. To be honest, the film actually got into our heads more, with severe confusal and the twist in comparison to us getting in the head of a mental,

but anyway, back to Fincher and more about him...not just the reason hes the best director to me.


 Fincher was born in 1962 in Denver..he lived a simple life and When he was 18 years old he went to work for John Korty,a famous american film maker and director in mill valley. . Fincher began to drift from his path in hope of having more control and independence and began alternatively  to direct TV commercials and music videos and attempted to sign artists of the time. Fincher has in fact directed TV commercials for clients that include Nike, Coca-Cola, Budweiser, Heineken, Pepsi, Levi's, Converse and Chanel. This alone indicates his huge interest and ability to deal with the public and diverse ranges of audiences.  He has directed music videos for Madonna, The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Iggy pop as well as George Micheal and Micheal Jackson! But his successes don't end there, his main successes are with se7en in 1995, fight club in 1999 and panic room in 2002. This is where Fincher truly gained his renown title. Finchers legacy has not yet reached a deficit. He continues to create ingenious screenplay for films such as gone girl and the social network and will most likely continue into a future of incredible  films.
