Se7en and The Social Network are currently locked at 50–50
Two Fincher procedurals — one criminal, one corporate — no separation.
Who do you think should win?
The Verdict Director's Cut
Se7en is a procedural about finding a killer. The Social Network is a procedural about finding the truth of a founding. Both are Fincher applying his locked-down compositional style to investigation narratives where the revelations arrive through patience rather than action. Freeman and Pitt tracking John Doe through rain-soaked crime scenes and Eisenberg defending his creation through parallel depositions are the same formal exercise applied to different subject matter. The tie says both investigations engage equally. The murder investigation and the corporate investigation produce identical bracket results from the same directorial hand.
