This really spoke to me, Alex. Great info, great advice. I rewatched seven as a result, and broke it down into sequences. I'd be interested in seeing your breakdown as well, so I know whether or not I got all the timing right. I've been working on a supernatural horror, and think this and some other movies along with it will help me figure out how to finish it. I agree with you that seven is brutal enough to make me uncomfortable, and yet I love how relentless it is. I love how every single scene, every bit of dialogue, and the moodiness of it, all foreshadow that one big whopper of an ending. Anything you have else to share on it, I'd love to hear it!
Kristal, so great that you did a breakdown of your own! That's how to make these things really click for you. I'm at the Harrogate Crime Festival this weekend but will post my breakdown of Se7en this week and we'll dig in.

This was fantastic! Thanks so much for the breakdown and I tend to agree on the annoyance of pattern serial killer style films.
I won't say it's my pleasure - but it has to be done! Thank you for the nudge.
