Our take on Gone Girl
David Fincher's 2014 thriller opens with a woman's disappearance that quickly becomes a media circus, then turns the glare on her husband as suspicion grows that he may not be as innocent as he claims. From that hook, the film peels back a marriage layer by layer, examining how spouses perform for each other and for a watching public. Cold, controlled and sharply cynical about media and image, it plays as both mystery and biting commentary on modern coupledom. Best for viewers who like their thrillers unsettling and morally slippery rather than reassuring. Go in knowing as little as possible for the fullest effect.
