Finchers' Real Time Panic


AICN got some reports regarding David Finchers' ('Fight Club') upcoming thriller, 'The Panic Room'. Fincher is shooting the movie in real-time, a bit like 'Nick of Time' which starred Johnny Depp. The movie is being discribed as the "adult version of 'Home Alone'".

The basic premise of the movie is about three men search for a missing fortune in a big mansion while a woman (Jodie Foster) hides in one of it's rooms.

Here's a cut down version of the report:

1) The film will be presented in "real time" ala NICK OF TIME. It didn't quite work with that film but if anyone can make it happen, Finchy can.
2) Basically, PANIC ROOM is a darker, more adult version of HOME ALONE. Not another promising film comparison, but refer to the end of note #1.
3) If there had to be one word to describe this film, it would be "dark". Their scooper reports that if there's "anything that isn't supposed to to be lit.... he (Fincher) doesn't wanna fucking see it."
4) Fincher is using a brand new digital technology that will allow him complete control over the look of the film.
5) A trailer is being cut as we speak.
