THE GAME (1997)
It is the story of Nicholas Van Orton (Michael Douglas) a wealthy investment banker who is given a mysterious gift on his 48th birthday by his wayward brother Conrad (Sean Penn) —participation in a game that "makes your life Fun”. Quickly his controlled life is turned upside down and he becomes unable to distinguish between the game and reality. Hints of a large conspiracy at play.
Directed by David Fincher: Alien (1992), Seven (1995), Fight Club (1999) Zodiac (2008) The Social Network (2010) Gone Girl (2014)
The first trailer for the film only featured voices over a movie of a puppet being manipulated by strings. Intriguing.
