Gone Girl (2014), written by Gillian Flynn, directed by David Fincher

In this episode, we discuss a movie about a sociopathic woman who curates her identity for her husband, and how she reacts when he rejects her. Or something like that: GONE GIRL.

DISCLAIMER: This movie and our discussion of it includes homicide, sex, gender politics, and potentially other topics that some listeners may find upsetting.

SPOILER DETAILS: We consider the first half / first hour of Gone Girl fair game for spoiler-free discussion.
