David Fincher: Nobody in a Thriller Knows They’re in a Thriller

David Fincher ("The Social Network," "Fight Club") discusses the responsibility of the director to create an environment that allows audiences to look from the inside out, never from the outside in.

In honor of Side by Side’s television premiere this coming Friday, August 30, at 9PM ET on PBS, we’re revisiting some of our favorite entries from the Side Swipes archives. Watch what David Fincher has to say about the dual role of the director who must serve as the eyes of the audience in addition to performing his on-set duties.
