    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Gary Oldman wanted to wear elaborate prosthetic makeup to closely resemble the historical Herman J. Mankiewicz but was persuaded otherwise by David Fincher, who wanted minimal makeup for capturing a more intimate performance.
    • Goofs
      In the first flashback scene featuring the meeting between the writers, Josef Von Sternberg, and David O. Selznick in 1930, the characters mention Universal Studios as the "horror studio" and mention titles such as Frankenstein and The Wolf Man. Frankenstein would not be filmed and released until the following year while The Wolf Man would not be made until 1941; 11 years after the scene takes place.
    • Quotes

      Herman Mankiewicz: You cannot capture a man's entire life in two hours. All you can hope is to leave the impression of one.

    • Crazy credits
      The Netflix logos at the beginning and end are in full color, despite the film being in black and white.

    Boring
    This movie is so boring, it will cure anyone's insomnia. Even the few examples of decent acting won't keep you awake. Sorry.
