Pitt had established himself as a credible film star following successes with Interview with the Vampire (1994) and Legends of the Fall, but Fincher had not considered him to portray Mills because "I'd never seen Mills as particularly accomplished, and I was concerned that [Pitt] seemed too together. But when I met him, I thought, this guy is so likable he can get away with murder—he can do anything and people will forgive him for it". [19] [2] [33] Kopelson was aware of Pitt's popularity and importance to Seven 's potential success; he shortened the pre-production schedule from twelve weeks to five to fit Pitt's schedule. [2] Pitt rejected several offers from other films because he wanted to escape his typecasting as a romantic lead character in favor of something with a more "documentary feel" with urban settings and a focus on dialogue, akin to thriller films such as The Conversation (1974). [2] [19] He said: "I just wanted to escape the cheese ... I came to find out [Fincher] had a lactose intolerance as well, so I was very happy about it". [2] Pitt described Mills as a well-intentioned "idiot" who "speaks before he really knows what he's talking about". He cut his hair for the role and lost weight to reduce the muscle he developed for Legends of the Fall. [2] Sylvester Stallone and Denzel Washington rejected the role.

Following the removal of the planned opening train-ride scene with Somerset, Fincher needed a temporary title sequence to screen Seven for studio executives. [t] He recruited R/GA designer Kyle Cooper and his team to assemble a montage slideshow reflecting Doe's perspective. This helped establish the character and his threat earlier in the film because Doe does not appear until Seven 's final act. [u] The sequence was set to the "Closer" remix at Fincher's request. [68] [61] The seven virtues were originally defined in the poem, Psychomachia, by Aurelius Clemens Prudentius, a Christian governor who died around 410 A.D. Because of the poem’s prevalence the concept and idea of the seven virtues spread throughout Europe. The following is a listing of the seven virtues and how they cure each of the seven deadly sins: The violent content of Seven was generally negatively received. [74] Critics such as Berardinelli and Gene Siskel found the gore excessive and "gratuitous". [ah] While some found the violent visuals to be tiresome and detracting, others said Fincher skilfully avoided showing the violence that led to the deaths, preventing them from distracting from Seven 's more enjoyable aspects. [93] [100] [96] According to Ebert and Turan, however, Seven would be too disturbing for many viewers. [90] [91] Fincher responded: "I didn't set out to piss off the people who are upset. I was told that Michael Medved [film critic at New York Post] wrote that the movie was evil, but I'm sure he slows down when he passes an accident just like everyone else. Death fascinates people, but they don't deal with it". [50] Howe and Owen Gleiberman said the ending is "like an act of treachery against the viewer", undermining any hope for a positive outcome; [92] [96] and Barry Norman said it denies the audience "even of the final comfort they fully deserve". [106] Ebert, however, found the ending to be "satisfying" but underwhelming compared to the film's earlier events. [90] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B" on a scale of A+ to F. [73] [107] Accolades [ edit ] Pineda, Rafael Antonio.

Each one of these deadly sins listed above has its root in the desire for more and the human need for excess. Each sin goes against the root of Christianity which is: love for God, love for our fellow man, and love for our bodies (keeping them as clean temples for God, 1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Paul writes in Philippians 4:11-12, “I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am.” This strikes at the root of each of these deadly sins. Paul in effect is saying that God can take care of our needs and there is no need to lust or desire after excessive things. What cures these deadly sins?
