By reading into an article like this one, you more than likely are hoping to learn a little more about perhaps one of the most influential films to be released in 1995, Se7en. It is pronounced seven, and through the later paragraphs of this piece you will learn a little more about the movie with a plot synopsis and some other important details that you should know to fully appreciate the film.
You are going to be fairly warned in advance, though. This article will likely contain some spoilers to the plot of this film. In order to adequately do the film any justice in discussing it, such spoilers are going to be necessary. So if you have not seen this film, the movie and its plot will be discussed in full in the later paragraphs of this article.
When you start watching this movie, you are going to be introduced to the two main characters of the piece, Detectives William Somerset and David Mills. They have recently been paired together to help Mills adjust to city detective work. Somerset is set to retire soon, so they are a great match and it is not long before they are working together on a gruesome crime scene unlike anything they have ever seen.
It involves a morbidly obese man who has been fed spaghetti until he literally burst open at the stomach, killing him. Somerset is called away to tend to another murder that was discovered, and Mills stays to round up evidence at the first. Somerset steps onto a crime scene of a powerful lawyer who was notorious for getting guilty men off for heavy compensation. Both detectives find a word at their crime scenes: Mills finds the term "GLUTTONY" and Somerset finds "GREED."
It doesn't take a lot of deduction by the detectives to determine that these crimes are relative to the seven deadly sins. So while two of them have been portrayed, there are still five crimes that are slated to occur to complete the quorum. It doesn't take long for these to rack up either, and they are not for the faint of heart.
To make matters even more obscure, the culprit, John Doe, reveals himself (even turning himself in). He offers to show the detectives Mills and Somerset to the location of the last two victims that had yet to be discovered. They are willing to play along when he agrees to give a full confession that would surely put him away. The last two victims are the last that you might have expected though.
There are powerful performances by Brad Pitt (Detective Mills) and Kevin Spacey (John Doe). Even as impressive as these performances are, they are equally as impacting as the supporting roles from Morgan Freeman (Detective Somerset) and Gwenyth Paltrow as the wife of Detective Mills, Tracy. This all star ensemble brought this chilling piece to the screen unlike anyone else could have. It was as horrific as it was an instant classic and a must-see.
So, if you wanted to learn more about Se7en, than this should have given you a good introduction to the film. While there is certainly more to appreciate about this movie, you are going to have to learn about that for yourself. So put the kids to bed, and appreciate what so many others have deemed one of the best films of 1995, and likely the nineties altogether. - 39815
