GONE GIRL (2014,
US)
“I will practice believing my husband loves me but I could be
wrong. I feel like something to be jettisoned if necessary. I feel like I could
disappear. I've finally realised that I am frightened of my own husband. The
man of my dreams, this man of mine might kill me. This man may truly kill
me."
Gone Girl is a broody but knowing meditation on modern marriage, murder and media. Anyone looking for a hard-hitting drama will be disappointed, but those looking for shocking, tempestuous thrills and a touch of irony won't be. The script and the leads inject excitement into the film even if they sometimes lack logic. An entertaining if sometimes frustrating film.
