Seven

In May 2020, I watched the movie Seven on DVD. The classic thriller film was released in 1995. The director is David Fincher. 

I have not watched it at theaters but I have done it on TV screens several times. I remembered the ending but I was very entertained again. 

The story follows a pair of young and retiring detectives who tracks down a serial psychotic killer. 

The relationship among the characters is similar to the one in The Silence of the Lambs. Brad Pitt as Mills and Morgan Freeman as Somerset remind me Jodie Foster as Clarice and Scott Gen as Clarice's boss, respectively. Then I associate Kevin Spacey as the serial killer John Doe with Anthony Hopkins as Dr. Lecter. 

Gwyneth Paltrow, acting Mills' wife, was pretty and beautiful. I adore voluptuous women like Jennifer Lopez and Chloe Grace Moretz but I was fascinated by Gwyneth despite her very slender figure. I liked to watch her expressions especially when she wore an anxious look. 

The two main characters gave contrasting performances, which impressed me. Morgan Freeman quietly acted. Brad Pitt casually did. Their combination looked wonderful. 

I was most impressed with Kevin Spacey as the psychotic killer. I felt him intelligent like I did Anthony Hopkins as Dr. Lecter. John Doe repeatedly murdered bearing in mind the seven deadly sins. He was crazy. Simultaneously, I was afraid of myself because I could understand his feelings considering what the victims had done. Then I remembered that I gloated over how Arthur changed to Joker in the movie Joker.
