David Fincher's The [Stone-Cold] Killer | Neo-Noir & Le Samouraï

In this unexpectedly topical (it's Noirvemeber!) episode, the QID gang talks about the recently released David Fincher film on Netflix -- "The Killer," starring Michael Fassbender. Rather than just talk about what we liked and disliked about the film, we use its release to look back at the neo-noir film that continues to inspire auteur-driven assassin projects -- Jean Pierre Melville's "Le Samouraï" (1967).
Listen to the full episode to -- first -- hear Amartya geek out about neo-noir films, especially Le Samouraï; Dhruv, Aryan, and Sanjeet -- for the most part -- follow suit. Then listen to Amartya freak out about "The Killer," something Dhruv, Aryan, and Sanjeet are themselves split on.
Discussion for "The Killer" and "Le Samouraï" includes spoilers.
