David Fincher: From a Distance

Fincher's use of the long/extreme long shot is something of beauty, lending a majestic sense of scale to his often cramped and grimy little worlds. Whether he employs the shot to communicate isolation, express magnitude, or even just to give us a much needed breath, Fincher's approach to distancing us from his subjects is masterful.
