Yes. I have to confess I've watched Zodiac more than any other movie - about 30 or 40 times (and this scene even more). It's one of the great scenes all right. When Graysmith says, 'This is a case that's covered both Northern and Southern California...' David Shire's music starts fading in for the big reveal and Toschi says 'Jesus Christ'. It's the tragedy of the unknowable remaining a tantalising mystery - but remember, 'just because you can't prove it doesn't mean it's not true'

@drdavid1963

Also you can watch this scene from Toschi's point of view when Graysmith is going through the evidence. Ruffalo has this brilliant half-smile on his face thinking 'who does this obsessive thinks he's kidding. He should leave it to the professionals. Us cops have been though this and we know we can't prove it.' Then, Graysmith presents the timelines of Arthur Lee Allen and the Zodiac and Graysmith says, 'we get our first new Zodiac letter in 4 years.' At this point, Ruffalo's expression changes to one of uncertainty as if thinking, 'maybe this guy's right. Or even if I know he is, how can he prove it?' which is when he asks him the final question. The great thing, also, about the 'Jesus Christ' reaction of Toschi is that he almost admits to Graysmith that he agrees with him and you can tell that he does but, as he says, 'but I am a cop'

Look at 2:03. Pause it. Notice the dividing line between the two. And how Ruffalo just reaches across that dividing line. He doesn’t stay there, but he reaches into the opposite side. That’s balance. That’s visual storytelling. That little moment looks like nothing. But it’s an effort to connect that he pulls back from. And finally, at the end, the dividing line is not crossed at all. Ruffalo stays in his space and exits on the left, never crossing the line.

I think Arthur was ONE of the Zodiac Killers. I believe the Zodiac Killer comprised of at least 2 or more people. That would explain why Arthur's handwriting and DNA didn't match what was found in the envelope, despite all the overwhelming evidence the authorities found in his trailer home. You really think he would be stupid enough to tell his friend, Don Chaney every single detail concerning his Zodiac identity, and how he would go about killing his victims? Maybe telling Don was part of the plan. He counted on Don Chaney to go to the Police, cause he knew regardless of what they found on him, the DNA and handwriting weren't gong to match anyway. It's a pretty clever way to throw the cops off his trail. Keep in mind all the letters the Zodiac sent consisted of details of the murders and humiliating the cops for not being able to catch him or in this case "them" It was all about having the power to evade the Police and always being one step ahead of them. Now as far as who the other assailants were? I do not know. It could be Paul Doerr or another suspect that goes by the name of William McDuff Andrew? Both of them fit the Kodiac's description for sure. But who really knows? Your guess is as good as mine. Be honest with me. What do you guys think of my multiple Zodiac Killer theory? Dude! I just thought of this earlier today before I read your comment. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks Arthur had and accomplice. It only makes sense tbh.

I actually liked the fact that the movie took a very firm position on who the Zodiac was and I was almost sure ALA was the Zodiac but now I’m not so sure. If ALA did it then he almost certainly had an accomplice.

This scene gives me the goosebumps along with the interogation scene..

This is what I believe. Arthur Leigh Allen is the main killer, but there was prolly 4-5 other killers who killed during his time and just blamed it on him making it harder to track him down. Remember the golden state bridge killer? Well his name was Joseph Angelo. He also did all the killings and raping around that time. But he got caught thru dna testing.

I read D'Angelo was also doing crimes for years up and down all over California. California had so many serials running around from the late 60s through the 90s, so I think, good luck ever solving this case.

Such a great movie, my favorite fincher movie

Such a great film; Fincher is a master; additionally, I really love how although the main plot is of course the mystery about the Zodiac identity, few films like this one really develop the life journey ark of the others characters: Robert: low profile nerdy cartoonist single guy, to focused centered family man, to obsessed guy divorced guy Paul Avery: prime sober old school journalist , sensationalist journalist, drunk hippiesh journalist in decadence

There is no indication that Robert was a focused centered family man, considering he was divorced before the film started. The implication is that he is prone to obsession and it's what drove off his first wife. Some people are doomed to repeat their mistakes. Paul Avery was never sober.

This is just pure class movie one of the best

I was surprised to recently see on blogs, websites, etc., there's a good amount of people who still look into other people as possible Zodiac suspects. I think if you read Graysmith's book, and how he laid out Zodiac's timeline so well, but also acknowledging the possibility that Zodiac, in his letters, could have made claims to murders he didn't commit to throw investigators off his trail, or to break up his patterns, that it was still Allen. Arthur Leigh Allen was not too far away from being charged with murder, but he died of a heart attack before it could be formally arranged, and no one has ever heard from Zodiac since.

That's why the handwriting expert cummingham said even though the police sent banana boxes of arthur handwriting to the handwriting expert he said it didn't match because maybe it was written by somebody else I am not sure if had gone through a lie detector test but maybe he could have passed it maybe one or two of the murders were not done by him but somebody else. I also believe that the murder of cheri joe bates is linked to zodiac. and even if arthur leigh allen had one or two accomplice they are probably very old or dead by now these murders took place like fifty years ago. I think it is important to establish the dna found in the zodiac letters and identify the person and see if that person had a possible friendship with arthur leigh allen

Hey wise guy, why don’t you try solving zodiac and get back to us. We’re waiting. Since the 60s

The most unbelievable part of this scene? A cop who doesnt jump at the first coincidence and ruin someones life.

This was a well-crafted movie in terms of the acting, the lighting, the editing etc, but it really should be seen as fiction. Graysmith had a book to sell and Fincher had a movie to promote, so both of them omitted or just invented things to make the case against ALA. Here's just a few examples: 1. the movie makes a big deal of zodiac speaking to the housekeeper on December 18 and saying "I have to kill today, it's my birthday". The FBI tell Graysmith that none of the suspects have a December 18 birthday. Graysmith then discovers that ALA's birthday was December 18 and runs to Toschi's house in the middle of the night having "solved" the case. In real life the Zodiac never called the lawyer's house at all, and ALA's birthday was openly recorded as December 18 in every file. There was just no significance to it. 2. The spotlight fell on ALA because of Cheney, who swore that ALA had told him of his plans in early January 1968, and that ALA was "raw" about having been fired from his job for molesting a student. In real life, this could not have been true because ALA was not fired until March 1968. When asked about this inconsistency sometime later, Cheney said "oh, the conversation must have been in 1969 then". Cheney's credibility was suspect in the eyes of the police from early on. He had reason to have a major grudge against ALA. 3. a major plotpoint in the movie is that someone made heavy breathing phone calls to Darlene's house and her parent's and in-law's houses that night, before the murders were known about. The movie shows Toschi and Graysmith realizing that this meant that the killer must have known Darlene, and since ALA lived "less than 50m away from her workplace", it had to be him. In real life, Darlene's brother eventually admitted to the police that he made the calls, because he'd asked Darlene to buy him some dope, and he was calling around hoping to find her. When she didn't answer, he didn't identify himself. There's numerous places where the movie is misleading, but these are just a sample to show that it was not trying to give a fair picture, but was intended to convict ALA. The latter was a pedophile and had creepy ways about him, but once you separate the fact from the fiction, the arguments for him being the zodiac are very flimsy. In real life, there's no way the police were about to charge him when he died.

In that scenario, Arthur had to have also killed David and Betty Lou. Now if it’s someone else that killed the others, and he is the one that writes the letters, how does he know the details about Betty Lou? That means if it’s another person writing the letters, that they had to have known the person who killed Darlene, David, and Betty Lou. It’s either Arthur had an accomplice or the letters were written by law enforcement that had insider knowledge

Say this is all bs, lets just say. I have a feeling this scenario happens extremely commonly; police know exactly what happened and who did it, but don't have the evidence to prove it. Killers and rapists walk free and continue to inflict themselves on others until prosecutors feel the charges will stick. Sure, theres plenty of crimes that don't leave a trace, but detectives aren't superheroes, and vigilante justice is punishable. I am not for the alternative, police punishing people without anything proven against them, but I just wanted to point out how common some form of this scene plays out irl.

Think one step further. How often does it happen that the police think (!) they know exactly what happened and who the killer is, but have no evidence. It has happened enough in the past that police officers have falsified evidence to peddle convictions because they firmly believe that the person is guilty. Decades later it turned out that the person was innocent but is now dead thanks to the death penalty and thheir wrong assessment. Just because you firmly believe someone did it doesn't mean it has to be. One should always reflect and consider, despite every probability, whether it is possible that one might be wrong and that the person is not the perpetrator.

@@Nerdlabor in the movie lord of war, ethan Hawke's character is a gov agent who knows all about the illegal/immoral crimes nick cage's character (illegal arms dealer) is up to, but lacks evidence early on, and therefore wont arrest him (more like is unwilling to bend the rules/plant evidence just to arrest him). There's a line nick cage narrates, "E.H. is the most rare type of officer, the kind that knows you are breaking the rules, but is unwilling to bend them himself just to catch you..." I know it's just a movie, but i found it interesting that they admit clean cops are the minority, and it rings true imo. I dont hate cops, but i have to acknowledge that it happens. Ive watched a cop claim he found a bag of weed in my friends car just to 'bust' him. This was a long time ago, weed is now recreational in my state, but back then it was a pain in the ass. I wont go into detail, but ill just say everyone there was 100% sure what the cop did. That was bad enough, imagine if it was evidence for a murder(s)? Ive heard various other similar stories, but i cant vouch for them. Ive heard a former k9 cop say that he/other k9 officers had a discreet command that would prompt the dog to 'alert' (signal they smell drugs) which then gave the cops probable cause to search without a warrant. Said they would only do this if they were already pretty sure the person had drugs, but didnt have any indication to act on. They'd basically blame the dog for violating your rights if they didn't find anything, avoiding liability. It's a scummy tactic.

Mark Ruffalo enjoyed his blasphemy, as do most atheists.

Anyway there is no such thing as blasphemy to an atheist. It's Christian propaganda
