The SLO Film Center at the Palm Theatre presents the films of David Fincher during their Flickerhead Friday Night Feature series every Friday at 7 p.m. On Friday, Jan. 10, see 2002’s Panic Room starring Jodie Foster, Kristen Stewart, and Forest Whitaker, about a divorced woman and her diabetic daughter who must hide in their home’s safe room when three men break in looking for a missing fortune.
On Friday, Jan. 17, the Palm screens 2007’s Zodiac starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Robert Downey Jr., and Mark Ruffalo, about the hunt for the Zodiac killer that terrorized Northern California with a killing spree between 1968 through 1983.
On Friday, Jan. 24, see Fincher’s 2011 English language remake of the 2009 Swedish film The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Fincher’s version starring Daniel Craig, Rooney Mara, and Christopher Plummer, follows the same tale of a journalist unraveling a mystery of a missing woman with the help of a computer hacker.
And finally on Friday, Jan. 31, the SLO Film Center concludes the Fincher retrospective with his 1996 crime thriller Se7en starring Morgan Freeman, Brad Pitt, Kevin Spacey, and Gwyneth Paltrow, about two detectives—a steady-handed veteran and a brash rookie—hunting a serial killer acting out the seven deadly sins.
