David Andrew Leo Fincher (born August 28, 1962) is an American film director. His films, mostly thrillers, have received 40 nominations at the Academy Awards, including three for him as Best Director. Born in Denver, Colorado, Fincher was interested in filmmaking at an early age. He directed numerous music videos, most notably Madonna's "Express Yourself" in 1989 and "Vogue" in 1990, both of which won him the MTV Video Music Award for Best Direction. He made his feature film debut with Alien 3 (1992), which garnered mixed reviews, followed by the thriller Seven (1995), which was better received. Fincher found lukewarm success with The Game (1997) and Fight Club (1999), but the latter eventually became a cult classic. In 2002, he returned to prominence with the thriller Panic Room starring Jodie Foster. Fincher also directed Zodiac (2007), The Social Network (2010), The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011), and Mank (2020). For The Social Network, he won the Golden Globe Award for Best Director and BAFTA Award for Best Direction. His biggest commercial successes are The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008) and Gone Girl (2014), both of which grossed more than $300 million worldwide, with the former earning thirteen nominations at the Academy Awards, and eleven at the British Academy Film Awards. He also served as an executive producer and director for the Netflix series House of Cards (2013–2018) and Mindhunter (2017–2019), winning the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series for the pilot episode of House of Cards. Fincher was the co-founder of Propaganda Films, a film, and music.
The movie is about people who survived the atomic war. Almost all the action takes place in the Moscow metro (the world's largest nuclear shelter, which can serve as an underground city), whose stations and passageways are inhabited by people. Thanks to efficient civil defense, the metro network was protected from radioactive contamination - almost all the stations have sealed gates and activated radiation and water purification filters. All indications are that at the time of Moscow's annihilation about 70,000 people could have taken refuge in the metro. Twenty years after the atomic war, the metro is inhabited by 50,000 people. Only half the stations are populated - some have been abandoned, many have been consumed by fires or cut off by tunnel collapses. The movie is based on the novel series by Dmitry Glukhovsky.
