The Game

Episode 78

Matt's pick this week moves David Fincher to the top of the podcast's "Most Reviewed Directors" list with pre-Y2K drama thriller The Game.

Released in 1997. Directed by David Fincher. Starring Michael Douglas, Sean Penn, and Deborah Kara Unger.

"In honor of his birthday, San Francisco banker Nicholas Van Orton, a financial genius and a cold-hearted loner, receives an unusual present from his younger brother, Conrad: a gift certificate to play a unique kind of game. In nearly a nanosecond, Nicholas finds himself consumed by a dangerous set of ever-changing rules, unable to distinguish where the charade ends and reality begins."
