Fincher com Ventura, e Costa com 200 milhões no bolso
I go and see films by my colleagues and I don't see this promise. Even Fincher. Which is a shame as he is the one who is connected to reality. I saw the girl, I saw the motorcycle, I saw the tattoo, it's all right. It's a bit too fancy, too chic maybe, but I understand. There's the iPhone, the sex, the loneliness. It's three hours because there's a guy killing girls. Why not just have no-one killing anyone and having a girl with a motorcycle? Can he do this? I think he can. I sent a message to his DP who I know very well. I said, “Avoid the killings. Three hours without the killings. You can have the Bond guy. Let's set it in Sweden for the yellow light. You can have the editor, the lover, the challenge between young and old, bodies coming together. I understand those fetishes. Let's avoid every single murder, killing, weapon. That's the challenge.”
