Despite having directed generational bangers such as Se7en and Fight Club, David Fincher was still perceived as a genre director. Back then, filmmakers couldn't simply pull a Ryan Cooglerand make Sinners and be taken seriously as artists. They eventually had to make a movie that fell in line with the industry's idea of prestige if they wanted that sort of recognition. In fact, the times have changed so drastically that Coogler began with a realistic, character-focused drama, but earned the best reviews of his career for his work in genre cinema. For Fincher, it was the other way around. Acclaimed as they were, his thrillers were never serious awards contenders. That changed in 2008, when Fincher directed the most stately film of his career.
