Daniel - you are my new masterclass. Wonderful videos, that are helping me as a writer and director. I have never been a patreon - but I need to be for this channel. Much love mags from bonnie Scotland 💗

Andrew Kevin Walker wrote a masterpiece - no hyperbole here - which has been enjoyed by millions but I had never heard this man's name before. Screenwriting is the most vital and, yet, the most under-appreciated part of filmmaking. Fuck me!

“Become vengeance, David…become Wrath” What an iconic line

"dead dog" "... I didn't do that." That little drop of comic relief is on the fucking money.

4:40 One of the best reversals in cinematic history!

Another ace of a video. And here I thought perfect the balanced timing of your exposition and the supporting video clips. I much admire your work.

Great video and thanks. It puts down the fact that there are still unanswered questions about the movie, even after the screening.

Morgan Freeman in 1994: prisoner Morgan Freeman in 1997: law enforcer

Very intense movie. Screenplay was well done, obviously. Good job breaking it down into its essential components.

You're doing excellent work here. These are really thoughtful breakdowns of each movie. I'd be curious to see you look into mistakes, or poorly developed elements in otherwise great films. For example, the love story between Neo and Trinity is very poorly developed in The Matrix and the story essentially hinges on that relationship. It's just interesting to see how a movie can survive and even thrive despite being imperfect in some respects.

Great content! Can't believe you don't have more subscribers 🤷‍♂️

I love this channel!

Great vid! Only one thing: The viliain, Doe, didn't have the 'Tracy' motivation until half way through the film. Tracy wasn't at stake originally. She and David became a thought to him only after Mills runs him off from the crime scene...specifically giving him his name! "Hey I got a right to be here man!"

I went to the same high school as Andrew Kevin Walker, although he was way before my time. The weird part is he went to my high school at the same time that Bret Michaels of Poison was also a student there.

Some great insight there. This channel is awesome and deserves more views!

Awesome channel bro. I'm impressed with the level of quality in your content. Please keep up the great work! These are both enjoyable AND super informative.

Dude great observation and really great insight, learned a lot thanks a lot👍

This is the first video of yours I've seen. You did a really magnificent job here! I especially love the "scene hooks" portion. Overall Seven doesn't work for me as well as most people, but I do find the ending to be perfect (starting with John Doe turning himself in). So glad the director & cast fought back against the studio, and won!

Nice one, Daniel! Top content 👍

Wouldn’t “Andrew Kevin Walkers’ SE7EN” be a more accurate title?

Hey guys, please do me a huge favor and hit the LIKE button (above). That's all I ask - it helps out the channel a lot!

5:08 - 5:30 HUGGEEE SPOILERS. ur video is amazing btw

Wonderful video! Thank you! "Seven" didn't do very well at the box office, although Mr. Walker's script is good. As pointed out, much of that was due to the unsettling nature of the movie (gore, etc.), but I think a large part had to do with the casting: Morgan Freeman is great, as always, but neither Mr. Pitt nor Miss Paltrow is right for the parts. Pitt played his character like he was a rookie cop, fresh out of high school and the police academy: childish, adolescently emotional, and out of control, rather than the experienced detective he is claimed to be; Paltrow's character was also childish, but Miss Paltrow seemed to do little more than "phone in" her work: no chemistry between her and either leading man. (In Paltrow's defense, her character is weak; Miss Paltrow might not have liked the character -- or possibly the way Fincher directed her to portray the character.) More (or better) character development would have helped, along with grownup portrayals of the Pitt and Paltrow characters. It's a mostly watchable movie. But it could have been exceptional.

Interesting

Somerset was the mastermind of killings.

please do Michael Mann Heat too

How many times do you watch a movie for these videos? I'm curious And did u went to arts school or something?

Great film ... Pitt's acting is hammy and self aware, it realky feels like watching someone act rather than an actual person ... not every scene but most.

Wait... Wrath is one of the deadly sins? I'm dumb. The whole time I was thinking the end scene was just a sick play for death by cop.

Do you write ? This understanding of the scripts is beyond the chart man trust me i am not just saying it. I could use someone like you beside me. If you cant write on your own which is completely fine just find a writer and guide her/him .

He should be won best original screenplay

Super bro super ❤❤❤❤SEVEN SAMURAI MOVIE analysis you will

How many times was the coroner visited in Se7en?

While I did enjoy this movie, the script is weak when it comes to the last two sins. It was hard enough to accept the premise for the pride victim, but envy and wrath had to be totally contrived. The writer simply could not come up with a good way to invent people who would be believable targets for John Doe's wrath. (See, he didn't really need David for that sin.) What was the killer going to do for the last two sins without the non-natural injection of David Mills and his family into the story line?
