When Gary Oldman staggers onto an MGM film set as hungover screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz in Mank and Louis B. Mayer asks who he is, Irving Thalberg replies dismissively, "Just a writer." David Fincher's forensic probe into the turbulent weeks Mankiewicz spent finishing his Citizen Kane script for Orson Welles aims to correct that slight and restore the reputation of an often overlooked architect of that 1941 classic, casting a jaundiced eye over 1930s Hollywood just as the Screen Writers Guild was in its infancy.

Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker ‘betrayal of the mentally ill’? Director David Fincher throws shade at the film
Acclaimed director David Fincher is sharing his thoughts on the movie Joker and why he considers it to be a “betrayal of the mentally ill.” Fincher recently talked about Joker‘s success in contrast to his movie Fight Club, which was much more difficult to get made back in the late 1990s. “Nobody would have thought they had a shot at a giant hit with Joker had The Dark Knight not been as massive as it was,” Fincher told The Telegraph. “I don’t think ­anyone would have looked at that material and thought, Yeah, let’s take [Taxi Driver’s] Travis Bickle and [The King of Comedy’s] Rupert Pupkin and conflate them, then trap him in a betrayal of the mentally ill, and trot it out for a billion dollars,” Fincher added.
