It comes out after Fincher’s «Zodiac» and seems to complement it: «Fracture» — from thrillers clearly made «after» Seven «and under their overwhelming influence (the same neuro-mental tension in every frame).
Coming out after Fincher and as if complementing it: «Fracture» — from thrillers, clearly made «after the» Seven «and under their overwhelming influence (the same neuro-mental tension in every frame). Well, under the influence of The Silence of the Lambs, of course: in the title role — Anthony Hopkins, who confessed to trying to kill his wife, is an intellectual villain. One way or another, «Fracture» is not so much an action thriller as a psychological duel of a young prosecutor, a winner by nature, and an old, cunning, predatory fox, who planned to play his accuser on this victoriousness.
Producer: Gregory Hoblit.Starring: Anthony Hopkins, Ryan Gosling, David Strathairn and others. At the box office from 5 July.
