A gentle criminal thriller that influenced the mood of the black mirror

When the reality begins to catch up with Distopian fiction, such speculative stories lose their advantages over time. The same can be said about the latest records in the “black mirror” Charlie Brooke, a show that is once considered a gloomy provocative in the best sense of this term. Perhaps our current reality is so hopeless that careful, pessimistic stories of the show cannot but feel hollow compared.

All the same, the “black mirror” consistently told in a timely manner, thinking fairy tales about technological excess, absurdist metropolitan areas and sustainable erasing everything that makes us human. The series brings a clear mood to the main TV in which we make your way to the stories that push the boundaries of the genre, forcing us to slow down and think. There is a conscious desire for episodes that make wild swings, especially those that combine the cold coldness of technologies with the heat of human communication (which is eventually washed).

The essence develops as a “black mirror” clearly affected other television shows with thematic or conceptual overlappings. For example, in the episode element of flexion of the mind, the cycle of time “White Christmas” reported several basic concepts in “Servance“Time “San -enipero” served as a tonal benchmark for Mrs. Davis Lindelaf. But what are the influences of the “black mirror” as an anthology interested in a certain brand of speculative fiction? If you say with Term In 2024, Broker listed a bunch of inspiration, ranging from Truman Show to dusk. However, the shower called “Se7en” David Finchar as perhaps the biggest when it comes to the series “Vibe:

“I recently revised the Trumansky show because I showed it to my children who are 10 and 12 years old, and they loved it. And I almost forgot how much I was an influence on me. That’s what I strive for. “

While Broker said it soon after that The “black mirror” season occurred on NetflixIt is safe to say that the moods are preserved and the “black mirror” is still seeking to direct the morally devastating conclusion “Se7en”. But what exactly does the Broker mean under this? Let’s look at the “Se7en” and consider how its relentless final points report that it performs in the show.

To update your memory: “Se7en” takes place in an unnamed, lawless city, where two detectives – William Somerset (Morgan Freeman) and David Mills (Brad Pitt) – work together to stop the serial killer (Kevin Speissian), which aims at the victims based on seven deaths. While Somerset is more embarrassed and disabled from the terrible reality of his work, Mills is more passionate about a good fight, determined to find a silver lining. This difference in the future follows that Somerset is almost at the end of his career (worn by world cruelty). On the other hand, Mills not only at the beginning of him, but all his life with his wife Treis (Gwinet Paltou). However, the culminating confrontation with the murderer (named John Dow) breaks the delicate dreams of Milas in the most rigid way, leading to one of the most intense, mental lines in the history of the film: “What’s in the box?”

Somerset, which is a picture of apathy throughout the “Se7en”, carefully shaved the contents of the box. According to the fact that the box contains a cut off the Trice headMills is manipulated by the John Dow Murder scheme (rays). Killing Hope and Marie Mills for his love life (which the killer could only strive for), John Dow embodies envy, and if Mills shoot at the firing furious, he will embody anger. This is exactly how everything goes when the whole world is destroyed at the moment when he asks Somerset about the contents of the box. Even the most managed, optimistic orderners of justice are ultimately broken by evil. Even with the criminal dead, true justice remains unattainable.

Just as cynically as this end, Fincher sprinkles hope If Somerset decides against care forever. “Around. I will be nearby,” he says in the closing of the movie scene, making it clear that he does not run away from the evil that covers his city and will instead try to face him. In a sense, Mills is now brought up by his partner, who finally realized that the world should fight. It doesn’t strictly hope that at best is bitter but endlessly better do that -No About the rotten world than the distance in the apathetic bubble.

Having twisted to the “black mirror”, I believe that Broker wants to capture these bitter moods, where he needs to recognize the pitfalls of the distinguished world, but hopeless surrender is not a response. Although not every episode in the ontology can take careful optimism, a comprehensive mood can be more significant than the comprehensive gloom of reality that can still be changed.
