GLUTTONY. GREED. SLOTH. ENVY. WRATH. PRIDE. LUST. David Fincher's 1995 Serial De-lifer film, Se7en is filled with symbols and often overlooked details.
In the spirit of the Seven Deadly Sins, the teachings upon which the criminal antagonist John Doe based his crimes, I've narrowed down my own teachings for this episode to just 7 key things you (might have) missed. From the secret alphanumeric codes hidden in the film's opening title sequence, to the chess match where our protagonists, Detective Mills and Detective Somerset, engage in a psychological battle with John Doe, I'll be breaking down every significant detail, hidden secret and interesting character attribute in the movie. "What's in the box?!"
This will be the beginning of a David Fincher mini-marathon, where I cover each of his horror/thriller type movies. I'm not starting with Alien³, because I figure I'll do the entire Alien franchise at one point, and when I do, I'd like to do them together, in order.

About Se7en
Director David Fincher's dark, stylish thriller ranks as one of the decade's most influential box-office successes. The film concerns Det. William Somerset (Morgan Freeman), a homicide specialist just one week from a well-deserved retirement. Every minute of his 32 years on the job is evident in Somerset's worn, exhausted face, and his soul aches with the pain that can only come from having seen and felt far too much. But Somerset's retirement must wait for one last case, for which he is teamed with young hotshot David Mills (Brad Pitt), the fiery detective set to replace him at the end of the week.

I like how it was raining the entire time Mills and Somerset were conducting their investigation, but during the scene where John Doe turned himself in, the sun came out. When John Doe's plan was revealed in the desert, the weather became clear and sunny.
True, I don't know if very many people cought that!!! 😊🇩🇰
Fun fact. The movie was filmed in LA where it basically doesn't rain. But one of their first days filming, if not their very first day, there was a heavy downpour and fincher liked it and wanted strict continuity throughout the movie so they added rain artificially for the rest of the movie.
What's done in the dark will be brought to the light.
Is rain in Se7en a reference to the flood in the bible ? Just like the killer of this movie, the flood was there to wash sins
@@amogussy_did_9.11 I don't think so, it's not the movie that's covering the 7 deadly sins. It a movie about a psychotic serial killer who trying to force society to see what society and the people who live with in have become and they indulge themselves in. And those who indulge in the deadly sins are bound for hell.
A small correction: John Doe himself is 'Envy' for envying normal lives, and Mills is 'Wrath' - he doesn't actually die but he kills all his values and good nature when he gives in to his rage and kills Doe.
The Wife is Envy
John Doe is Pride
Mills is Wrath
@@neonicon8500 how is the wife envy? John doe exclaimed how all the people he killed weren't innocent. What was mills' wife's sun then?
@@moizyguy6714 Idk, she's innocent as far as I can tell, but she has to be one of the sins if he killed her. I think Mills messed up his original plans when they found his house, so he had to come up with something else. The wife is either Pride or Envy. John Doe is the other. I can see him being either one. He gloats about how they will study his killings for years to come, yet he's jealous of the life Mills has. Idk what the wife could be. I can see her being proud of Mills, proud she's about to be a mother, but perhaps she's not happy with her living conditions and how hectic her life seems to be so maybe she envies other people's lives. I wonder if there's deleted scenes with her, because the ending has always felt rushed and incomplete to me.
@@neonicon8500 the woman who had to call for help or OD on sleeping pills was pride
@@Ethius76 Oh yeah, that's right... Wtf...
"Seh-seven-ehn" "Alien cubed" OMG, dude! You're killin' me!
You typed the words right outta my mouth!
This is why I stayed subbed
He lost me when he said these.
I don't even understand lol, is that really how its pronounced?
@@BestKeptSecret18 no, man. Lol. It's just the number. Seven. The 7 in the middle makes it somehow spicier? Maybe? People do dumb stuff with titles.
Se7en is set in a Gotham City before Batman exists.
And Jon doe would be zasz
@@leblanchiphop4440
John Doe would be The Riddler.
@@anubusxjon doe would be the joker
@@ANTONl027 jon doe would be killer croc
@@joshuakelly974 that one doesn’t even make sense
My mother thinks you're weird as hell but she will watch the hell out of your videos. A 72 year old black woman loves your channel.
mother sounds amazing!
I'm a 50 year old black woman and I also love his channel and bought a t-shirt.
@@joleen1463 good for you Mama!
😂
just his commentary is great....it’s the being in-front of the camera part that is weirdly unsettling 🤷🏾♂️🙅🏾♂️
(please notice this)
While rewatching this film and I noticed something! Right before John doe turns himself in, as Mills walks by the front desk, the woman there tells him that his wife had called and left a note that morning. This means that probably, as John doe was in their apartment about to kill her, he forced her to give her husband one final call.
This makes me think that IF ONLY Mills was in the office and had taken the call, he might have been able to save Tracy!
It's so frustrating, that and that we never got to know what she said in that note. She was most likely being threatened with a gun so she tried to sound calm but would've definitely dropped a hint or two, yet the front desk lady did not understand! (Once again, se7en shows us apathy in the works)
That's why this is such a brilliant movie, it leaves you with a lot to guess about, so many awful things.
Actually, John Doe is Envy
@cosmix dolly because he envies Mill's, and probably everyone's(even though he loathes them), normal life. It's something he can't have.
@Deadest Dolly he’s says this before mills kills him mills is wrath
Oh wow, he trade marked "things you missed" to stop screen rant from stealing his video ideas, nice!
I mean... that doesn’t just stop scree bc rant from stealing a video idea. This stops every single person from going “hey you missed some stuff!” In THEIR videos.
@@jevilcore Actually, it only stops them from specifically using the phrase "Things You Missed" since he trademarked the phrase. It does not TM every similar phrase, only the exact wording. I think he did it more to make SR think twice about copying the video when they see TM in the title.
@@MacForaday does that make it better? Idk, it still seems like a weird choice. The phrase doesnt apply to films exclusively...i hope this doesn't bite him back in the ass.
@@jevilcore He doesn't seem like the type to pursue everyone saying that phrase. This feels like it was aimed specifically at Screen Rant
@@MacForaday no it does not they will still do it
The fact that he has the balls to cut his own finger skin so fingerprints won't be present on his murders
Next level thinking
Big brain energy for sure.
That is the definition of pure determination.
It doesn't work anyway the FBI finds something and even if it's mutilated they consider it print there's no way he cut off his fingerprints his thumb prints that easy he would have left something and those prints could be traced
@@tonyhardy4024 Fair point. They could then simply use the resulting unique patterns of scars to nail someone later on. I've seen the technique used on a few crime series.
One quick thing. Tracy (Paltrow) is NOT the Envy victim. John himself is. He says so "It seems that envy is my sin". Love ur vids dude
He envied that Mills was just starting his new life with someone he loved. Where as, Somerset was at the end of his career and alone.
i like how kevin spacey plays the psycho because of what we know today.
I dont know what Kevin Spacey did, may you please state what he did????
@@jay-sansings5024 www.vox.com/culture/2017/11/3/16602628/kevin-spacey-sexual-assault-allegations-house-of-cards
use google u idiot
And the people accusing him mysteriously die. And off topic he’s close friends with the Clintons and Jeffery Epstein.
@@creepycassetteholy shit - those poor people! and he got away with it for so long too
Sorry mate but your wrong about envy. She wasn't envy John doe was envious of mills life. Otherwise great vid
I agree.
About to say the same thing👍
I think that is what he meant. Killing her was envy,John doe was envious and killed her.
Pleased do a "Things You Missed" or a "Horror History" episode of "Sinister!" I would love to learn more about Mr. Boogie!
Seconded
I also pronounce it “Se7en”
Good analysis 😊
I don't see any other way to pronounce it!
Seems legit /s
Holy crap. You just solved a life-long mystery for me. For years growing up I remember this little white "marble" (not exactly sure what it was really made of) figure thing in with all my toys. I never knew where it came from or what it was. My parents never knew either. But I kept it for years, never knowing exactly what it was and honestly I haven't thought about it in 20 years or more...until now. It's a chess piece! Apparently a pawn. 2:35 Thank you so much for clearing up a nearly 35 year old mystery for me.
There is a comic that actually tells John Doe’s origin story
Where? What’s it called??
It’s just called “Se7en”.
I’ve seen this movie at least thirty times and never noticed he has basketballs on his tie
Good job with the ad. Get that $, son. It was fluid and quick, no more of a distraction than need be. And good video as always.
I love the brief use of Code Geass in this video when explaining Gambits.
The gambits listed also fit with John Doe's mentality and the end of the movie. John doesn't consider himself important. He's intentionally sacrificing himself for his "checkmate".
Se7en is one of my favorite movies, and now I understand better how the opening credits tie in thanks to your excellent analysis.
I love czs world so much thank you for getting me thru lockdown
Glad I can help!
You are every director's dream researcher and onlooker who brings to love the complexities and layers of their cinematic creations to others .....
That sponsored transition was on point dude lol 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I would love to see you do a Things you missed of "The Game" There's so much material there!
Such a great movie
Love that movie!
I appreciate the fact that you referenced Code Geass in this vid.
Same! It’s my favorite anime!!
@@fataliecatalie899 Also my favorite too.
I loved this flick! I went to see it in the theater SEVEN times without paying for it... The first time was with one of those full page movie passes you used to get from college. I wish you could say more about it...analyzing the seven deadly sins... Great THINGS YOU MISSED episode!
Hey you should do a video on Mothman Prophecies! Just watched this last week, great movie!
Love that film. Mothman Lives!!!!
u covering one of my fav movies ever? this is the best that happened to my year, love u dude
Wait a sec, aren’t Emo guys supposed to be skinny little rakes? You’re looking rather shredded dude! 👍
his secret buff!
Precisely what I was thinking.
Love your videos! Can you do videos on the Final Destination franchise?
Really want a sixth film.
Doesn't he have videos on those?? It may be Horror History though, not What You Missed.
@@missiecombs4807 i posted this before he actually did videos in FD so haha ig my request was heard
@@mikahong I didn't even look at the date 🤦🏼♀️ sorry.
Wasn’t expecting you to be wearing a Vest too, you should wear it more often and show those muscles... for educational purposes obviously 😉
I like the way you think
And we can't forget the one incredible detail that the opening credits scene has that. Unbelievable remix of "Closer" called the (precursor) mix by "coil". Rest in peace, John and Peter!😔🙏✋✌
It's hard to believe that there was a time when only movies like this dominated the box office. Now it's all just marvel and star wars on a seemingly endless loop of predicibility and monotomy.
Your content is incredible! Thanks for all the hard work you put in to each video.
I know they're not movies, but have you ever considered doing a things you missed or a character timeline for some of the Silent Hill games? I think you'd do an awesome job on them
"Somebody call somebody" probably the best line in any movie
So proud I'm here this early!!! Great video, but no surprises there lmao
me and my brother literaly just saw this wtf
I made this for you.
BrUH I'm too scared to watch actual horror movies, also I love the little, Somerset is on his last week, while Mills on his first week, and I would love for someone to confirm/prove this wrong, but I think Somerset was chosen to help Mills with this case.
@@jay-sansings5024 dude why are you replying to this comment for something unrelated? Can't you just make your own comment?
Long time subscriber, first time commenter. I love, love, love your presence. Your videos are a pleasure. Nothing resonates with a horror lover than the evidence that someone else loves it just as much! The way you said the name of the movie had me cracking up. "S-seven-en"...you're just too much. Just wanted to shout out my appreciation. Watching your videos reminds me in a way of talking horror with my late brother, like the jokes you make and some of your mannerisms. It's familiar and very nice, like a thing I forgot I missed and am glad to be reminded of. I hope to learn about things I missed for many videos to come. Peace out, friend.
That's it! "Se-seven-en" is the only way I'm gonna refer to this film from now on
Oh bomb. What a throwback
One of my favorite movies of all time
Edit: Can we get a Horror History for Danny Torrance
I’ve been watching this movie all summer, thank god you finally made a video on Se7en
John Doe walked so Jigsaw could run.
Kevin Spacey is so talented
Despite his controversial allegations, his performance of John Doe in that Movie was villainous it's incredible.
I'm so angry that he turned out to be a garbage human. He is an amazing actor and I've always admired him.
I know. It makes me upset because he's played so many amazing roles, and I can never watch them the same. I guess on the plus side, he played a lot of villains, so it's ok to hate him in those roles 🤷♀️
sesevenen is one of my favorite "sort of horror" movies
your hair is so cool, and i love your videos❤❤
Something i have never seen anyone mention is that after the chase scene, when morgan's character arrives you see him breefly looking up, checking to see if there were any dangers from above. This shows that mills' impulsiveness and inexperience will lead to his downfall, cuz if he did the same thing he wouldn'r have been ambushed
Love watching this for the first time after the John Doe horror history
do a things you missed on “the sixth sense” PLEASE
3:32 This is problalby first time i got "plotwisted" or "spoilered" (feel emotinon of plottwist) such a great twist.
Great video about my all-time favorite movie/ Seen it hundreds of times, at least. Thanks for posting!
Hi CZ. Love your videos man, keep it up. Just had an idea. During the last scene, a couple of John Doe's lines stood out to me; "I wish I could've lived like you", "I tried to taste the life of a simple man" and, "Because I envy your normal life, it seems that envy is my sin". So this looks to me like John saw himself as the 'Envy' body and made Detective Mills 'Wrath' (using Mill's wife as a tool to get him into this state) instead of Mill's wife as 'Envy' and John as 'Wrath'.
Your videos are seriously on a whole other level, so glad I found you.
Woohoo finally I was dying waiting
My first time watching one of your videos and I gave it a thumbs at the JR Smith reference. Well done! You just got yourself a new subscriber!
Surely Doe was the 6th victim ‘envy’…he even admitted it himself.
Mills became Wrath and destroyed his own life for vengeance thus becoming the 7th victim.
Ad break is perfectly placed! I hate random ads in the middle of sentence. You have it with a transition!
Just got recommended this video by RUclips and it did NOT disappoint. Beautiful execution. Defeinitely gonna subscribe now! Can’t wait for the Alien series! 🤘🏽
*finally, an upload*
I've missed you lots :( 💗
WTF? How do people see these things in films? I've watched Se7en at least 30 times and missed most of the symbolism. Subscribing to you sir.
A comic series was released going into John Doe's history, but after reading it, I think it's a better movie without the background.
She wasn't envy, Doe was envy...
Maybe that's what you meant and i just misunderstood what you said.
Yeah, i percieved the same.
Doe felt the envy, she was the victim of it. If Doe was envy, who would be wrath?
Each murder “represents” a deadly sin. Doe is merely the “cause” of all of them except one.
@@michaelmcdonald8452
David (Pitt) is wrath....
And if Doe FELT the envy, then he is the sinner, she is the victim of his envy, not guilty of anything....
@@michaelmcdonald8452 Doe was envy, he killed Mills' wife and child because he was envious of Mills' life. Mills was wrath, because he killed Doe in a fit of rage after he found out what Doe had done.
Each of Doe's murders was meant to punish what he saw was a personification of one of the seven deadly sins. The fat man was gluttony because he ate more than he needed to, the lawyer was greed because he cared more about money than justice, the drug dealer was sloth because he encouraged people to waste away their lives in drug trips, the prostitute catered to her clients' lusts, and the model was prideful of her appearance. Each of them was punished because of their sin. Doe felt envious of Mills, and he was punished with death. Mills was wrath, and he was punished by going from a police officer, to a criminal.
Will The Angry Dudeist the only difference in what you’re saying and what he’s saying is whether the victim represents the sin or their executioner.
For the first five, there was a body associated with each sin so in that language, it makes sense that she and Doe would be 6 and 7.
I’d say this is kind of splitting hairs but I understand the distinction you’re making.
It's great to see one of Kevin's boys come out and tell us all about it. CZ's world!
CZ has to be the most metal-headed lincoln without lead in his head that ive ever known about.
*_Rock on, guy._*
“Hell, this ain’t even my desk.”
That laugh that Morgan does is the hardest i have seen him laugh in any movie
2:33 as opposed to a “Batman Gambit”, where you concoct a plan that completely depends on the predictability of a player or target.
For example: in the film SUPERMAN II, Superman conducts a Batman Gambit on the prediction that Lex Luthor would betray him to the Kryptonian villains. The plan works because Luthor did exactly what Superman assumes.
Screen Rant interns: write that down, right that down!
My kid's chess coach gave us a speech after a Sunday tournament. "Today is Sunday, and all over America today, there will be football commentators proclaiming that football is like a game of chess. But nowhere ever did anyone say that chess is like a game of football. Therefore chess is superior to football."
I can't even read the title of this film anymore without pronouncing it like you. You're a freakin' genius.
This must've been during quarantine 'assuming we both stay inside"😂😂😂
One of my favorite movies covered by one of my favorite RUclipsrs!
Thanks for the content. I just cannot get enough.

Thank you 🙂
This was great, thanks for sharing!
Czsworld thx for telling things we miss it make the video enjoyable and interesting cause we never knew that it was in the movie
I bet people underestimate your intelligence alot, I thoroughly enjoy your videos bravo bro!👏
No one can possibly make a Psychological thriller seems even more intense than you do. Kevin Stacey's acting is some of his best, but I feel this very well may be Morgan Freeman's best performance of his career, after watching this video.
You need to see this movie it’s mind blowing.
It comes on Monday on AMC I see. I'm DVR ' n it!
Maybe John Doe was an amazing basketball player when he was younger. Or he is secretly just a big fan.
I love when Somerset sends the cop to buy cliff notes of Canterbury tales and Dantes inferno :)
If you gonna to do the Alien franchise i seriously recommend this channel "Kroft talks about movies".
Things you missed in Re-Animator? Horror history of Herbert West? Throw your Re-Animator fans some love? :D
Dude your a genius wow so many key point human action one tends to miss talking ,just overseeing. I really appreciate this video. Oh btw epic way to throw in the sponcer with the story didn't even feel it.
Awesome video Im definitely going to rewatch and look out for hints
Finally, someone else who calls it se-seven-en
One of my favourite films of all time
I've watched this movie over a dozen times, I never knew John Doe was the paparazzi cameraman!! 😯😯😯
I haven’t seen sesevenen, but then again, I haven’t seen most horror movies...
Its worth a watch
Welcome back dude and with a great video to
It’s funny how when he said the gambit about chess I was thinking this sounds like code geass and guess what happened next 😂😂
If you have Morgan Freeman as an actor in your movie, you do not waste a chance for a perfect monologue.
seven before Friday the thirteenth on this channel?? i will keep crying
I am absolutely loving CZsWorld's quarantine hair
The biggest crime for 7 is there wasn't another movie using different people.
Why didn’t I get a notification for ur last video?
RUclips is self imploding. Follow me on Twitter, I always tweet when I have new videos.

In the alternate ending, Somerset takes the gun from Mills and shoots / kills John Doe so Mills doesn't have to - therefore foiling John Doe's grand plan.

The 7s in the electrical towers is genius.
Things YOU missed, besides the Envy part that a lot of people already stated. Chess also has a timer (but your point still stands). Jon Doe did not go back to document his victim and slopily run into the investigation, he went to gather intell on the investigating detectives in the guise of a newspaper photographer, (get photos and test their reactions) in order to help plan his next steps. It's not Ironic that he is called Jon Doe and that is what they call unkowns, he is called Jon Doe because he is unknown, period.
