I learn the most from making my own mistakes.
David Fincher
I'm totally anti-commercialism.
David Fincher
Look, it's nice. I like the fact that critics liked this movie, but most of the movies that I've made, you'll find a handful of people that love it and more than a few other handfuls of people hate it. If I was invested in that, I would've given up long ago.
David Fincher
How do you shoot a 150-day movie? You shoot it one day at a time.
David Fincher
Directing ain't about drawing a neat little picture and showing it to the cameraman. I didn't want to go to film school. I didn't know what the point was. The fact is, you don't know what directing is until the sun is setting and you've got to get five shots and you're only going to get two.
David Fincher
I want people to flourish. I want them to walk away from the experience going, That's what it should be like.

David Fincher
I've never been to Harvard, I've never been to college, so I don't know what dorm life is like.
David Fincher
We live in a silly time, and people go to the movies to see something that they haven't seen before, and you have to promise to show them that. In a horrible way, you have to promise them a special effect.
David Fincher
And I love shooting football.
David Fincher
For a number of years, I'd been around the kind of people who financed movies and the kind of people who are there to make the deals for movies. But I'd always had this naive idea that everybody wants to make movies as good as they can be, which is stupid.
David Fincher
It's a very American thing to hide away from death.
David Fincher
Human beings are amazing at finding ways to waste their own time.
David Fincher
If you read the good reviews you gotta read the bad reviews. I kind of think of it as like being a quarterback: you get way too much blame when it's bad and way too much credit when it's good.
David Fincher
I have great appreciation for people who do anything well. I think that it's very difficult to do what you do well.
David Fincher
You can’t take everything on. That’s why when people ask how does this film fit into my oeuvre. I say 'I don’t know. I don’t think in those terms’. If I did, I might become incapacitated by fear . . . How do you eat a whale? One bite at a time. How do you shoot a 150-day movie? You shoot it one day at a time.
David Fincher
The thing is, that great actors are everywhere. They're everywhere. They're doing good parts on television. They're doing television commercials. They're doing local theater. There are so few opportunities.
