With Mindhunter, Fincher seems to be turning the very eye of the camera back at us: this pilot isn't another true crime show stopper (although Fincher is kind of king at that), it's an exploration of why we are so obsessed with those ultra violent capers. There's a layer of meta-narrative. Ford is us. And Fincher prods and questions our own impulses of self-interest.
