• Zodiac Produced by Cean Chaffin, Brad Fischer, Mike Medavoy and Arnold Messer; directed by David Fincher, screenplay by James Vanderbilt, based upon the book by Robert Graysmith; cinematography by Harris Savides; production design by Donald Graham Burt; edited by Angus Wall; costumes by Casey Storm; art direction by Keith P. Cunningham; music by David Shire; starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Mark Ruffalo, Anthony Edwards, Robert Downey, Jr., Brian Cox, John Carroll Lynch, Richmond Arquette, Bob Stephenson, John Lacy and Chloë Sevigny Color, 158 mins. Given the near impossibility of reconciling the precision and depth of lames Vanderbilt's Zodiac screenplay with his earlier abysmal work, including Basic (2003), with John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson; the horror film, Darkness Falls (2003); and The Rundown (2003), a silly vanity project for The Rock to star in, I'm compelled to consider Zodiac primarily as Fincher's film-this, despite the fact that Vanderbilt wrote the film's script on spec as a personal effort.
