2014's Gone Girl, directed by David Fincher and adapted for the screen by author Gillan Flynn, raises a lot of questions. Is it a mystery? A thriller? An absurdist satire? Susan and Greg cannot agree. And that's marriage.
Despite his initial concerns when Susan picked this film, Greg found himself enjoying the movie until the third act. Greg has a laundry list of what he feels are massive plot holes. Susan digs into the psychology and complexity of the film's villain, Amy Dunne - played masterfully by Rosamund Pike. Both discuss how excellently the film was cast and discuss performances by Ben Affleck, Tyler Perry, Neil Patrick Harris, and Carrie Coon. As always, they discuss trivia about the film, box office, and their favorite moments.
