Description

This week we’re descending into Se7en (1995), David Fincher’s rain-soaked nightmare where gluttony, greed, and wrath aren’t just sins—they’re crime scenes. Brad Pitt’s the hot-headed rookie, Morgan Freeman’s the weary sage, and Kevin Spacey’s waiting in the shadows with a plan that’s been rotting for a long time. It’s a bleak dive into moral decay, a city that feels cursed, and a final box that still haunts us. We’re peeling back the blood-streaked layers to figure out why this grim masterpiece refuses to let go.
