David Fincher’s Netflix series Mindhunter is such an incredible series and if for some reason you haven’t watched it yet, you should probably remedy that. The series is filled with great and interesting storytelling and part of what goes into telling the story for this series is the editing.

I’ve got a fantastic video essay to share with you that focuses on the editing in the series and the breakdown will help you see and appreciate what the editing brings to the series more.
