‘Mank’ Review: A Technical Masterwork Upheld by a Surprisingly Timely Narrative

On this episode of The Global Film Podcast, Editor-In-Chief and Host Diego Andaluz reviews David Fincher’s latest film Mank. Joined by contributors Ryan McQuade (Awards Radar), Nabeel Zaman (Film Updates), and Carson Timar (Clapper), they touch on the technical and thematic strengths and shortcomings of the film, among other notable highlights.

In Mank, 1930s Hollywood is reevaluated through the eyes of scathing social critic and alcoholic screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz as he races to finish the screenplay of Citizen Kane.

Directed by David Fincher and starring Gary Oldman (Darkest Hour) and Amanda Seyfried (Mamma Mia!), Mank is a political drama that comes to theaters of November 13th and Netflix on December 4th. Listen to our review below or here on your favorite podcast platform.
