DAVID FINCHER SAYS “NETFLIX HAS BY FAR THE BEST ‘QUALITY CONTROL’ IN HOLLYWOOD”
& STREAMING IS THE FUTURE OF CINEMA CULTURE

This may ruffle some feathers: speaking to Le Monde about his latest film “The
Killer,” David Fincher made some semi-controversial remarks regarding the state
of the filmmaking industry. His take? Netflix, the streamer that’s produced his
last two films, is the best place in Hollywood to make movies right now. What’s
more, cinematic culture needs to accept that the home distribution service
offers “optimal representation” for films over the movie theater experience. And
in Fincher’s mind, it’s not even a close comparison.

Thriller With Michael Fassbender Is Entertaining But Orthodox [Venice]
When asked about his relationship with Netflix, which goes back to the 2013
series “House Of Cards,” Fincher compared the streamer’s readiness to foot the
bill for him against his earlier studio projects. “Let’s be honest. I have
worked for most of the major film studios. When you tell them, ‘I have to do
these special effects in 4K,’ their first response is, ‘Oh, gee, why do it so
expensive?’ They balk at the slightest expense,” said the director. That’s not
the case with streaming giant for Fincher. “Netflix has never quibbled with this
type of choice,” he continued. “They adopted an industry standard that made
sense to filmmakers. Netflix has by far the best “quality control” in all of
Hollywood.”
And Fincher thinks Netflix’s format will be the future of cinema, whether
traditional moviegoers like that or not. “You know, we will not save cinema as a
culture by restricting home distribution systems,” he continued. “For this to
happen, the cinema would have to become a cutting-edge place, and not this damp,
smelly, and greasy place that it still is with too few exceptions, skimping on
all necessary expenses. I loved certain theaters, like Grauman’s Chinese Theater
or the Cinerama Dome in Los Angeles, but the technical conditions there were
deplorable. We must move past all this nostalgia to finally ask ourselves the
right question: who offers optimal representation today?”
To Fincher, Netflix, and streaming culture in general, offer said optimal
representation for filmmakers. But does watching movies at home offer the same
tantalizing, event-like experience that going to the theater does for audiences?
The culture of cinema isn’t just filmmaking, but also film viewing, with
critical response and audience reception just as integral to a movie’s cultural
cache as how it’s made and who produces it. Fincher and Netflix may have a fine
business relationship which allows him to tinker with any VFX and editing he
wants, but it’s the spectators in the audiences that ultimately decide a movie’s
fate. No amount of technical expertise or swollen budget will overshadow the
shrewd acumen of a public that views a piece of cinema critically. And seeing a
film in the theater may be arguably be the best place to engage with it.
“The Killer” hits Netflix today after a limited theatrical run that began on
October 27. It’s fared well with critics so far, but will Fincher’s film quickly
get lost amid the glut of Netflix’s content library? Or is Fincher generally
unconcerned with how audiences receive his movie, only interested in who will
allow him the most creative freedom for his future work? Whatever the case,
Fincher dismissing the movie theater experience as a bygone pastime will stoke
ire in some cinephiles. Is the director right about Netflix being Hollywood’s
best place for “quality control”? Or is he glossing over an essential part of
cinematic culture?
