        Summary
        Over the last couple of years, the trickster has gained much popularity by his frequent appearances in pop culture. Focusing on the trickster in contemporary film, there is a director whose work is not immediately linked to tricksterism, but whose work can definitely examined from that angle. David Fincher's films feature trickster characters, trickster games and trickster narratives; the director himself being the ultimate trickster by putting the viewer on the wrong track with his deceptive narratives, and by constantly aiming to break boundaries in film making.
