Zodiac: Review

Zodiac, Robert Downey Jr, Jake Gyllenhaal

David Fincher's methodical examination of the infamous Zodiac murders of the late 1960s and early 1970s may disappoint moviegoers expecting slick thrills: It's more ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN (1976) than SE7EN (1995). But its dissection of the ultimate cold case, drawn from Robert Graysmith's best-seller, is a chilling exercise in soul-eroding anxiety. July 4, 1969: A gunman ambushes a young couple (Ciara Hughes, Lee Norris) parked at a popular Vallejo, California, make-out ... read more

DVD Tuesday: David Fincher Dissects the Serial Killer Called Zodiac | Ask FlickChick | 9/18/2007
David Fincher's Zodiac (2007) strikes me as a fascinating companion piece to last week's DVD Tuesday pick, Manhunter (1986). While both are about the hunt for a serial killer and the toll it takes on the investigators, Manhunter is pure fiction inspired by the work of the FBI's behavioral science unit, while Zodiac (unlike 1971's Dirty Harry or the 2006 Zodiac, which also took their inspiration from the case) hews closely to the facts of a nearly 40-year-old unsolved case.The killer dubbed "Zodiac" — after a cryptic symbol with which he signed a series of taunting letters to the media and the police — is credited with seven murderous attacks committed between December 1968 and October 1969 in and around the San Francisco Bay Area; two victims survived and five died. Zodiac (and/or one or more copycats) played ruthless games with the police, claiming dozens of victims who died or vanished both before and after the acknowledged 1968-'69 spree.

Fencing Lessons | Dean's War at Home Blog | 3/29/2007
Hello again! This is Dean Collins from The War at Home. This week's episode is called "A Bitter Pill to Swallow." My character decides to take up fencing to escape the influence of his father. This particular episode was probably my hardest week on the show. Before this episode began production, I received a call from our creator and executive producer, Rob Lotterstein. He told me that he had pitched the idea of my character learning to fence to the Fox network and they thought it was great. He told me the basic story, in which my character develops an interest in fencing. I told him that it sounded like a lot of fun and I would love to do it, but then he mentioned that in order for me to look like a proper fencer, I would have to take a week and a half's worth of fencing lessons. This sounded like a fun experience and I was ready to take on the challenge.Over the weekend, I went to the Warner Bros. Studios to begin my training with my fencing instructor, Anthony De Longis.
