Se7en
man seriously... the moment the word ”greed” popped up on the screen, i already suspected that seven meant the seven deadly sins, and that the next murder was going to be another aspect of it. but never in a million years did i think that the embodiment of wrath would end up being mills himself, like what the hell...
i was honestly floored by how the story evolved as time went by, and, i hate to admit it, but john doe was spitting facts when he said:
”we see a deadly sin on every street corner, in every home, and we tolerate it. we tolerate it because it’s common, it’s trivial. we tolerate it morning, noon, and night.”
it’s scary because it’s true. none of us are ever truly free from these sins. we just ignore them because everyone is carrying their own baggage. and john doe articulates this fact in what feels like the most deliberate way, ultimately turning himself into the embodiment of “envy”
