Gone Girl

               I’m dying to see the new movie “Gone Girl” with Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike.  Of COURSE it’s rated R so unless you’re 17 or older or you don’t feel bad sneaking into movies, grab your 21 year old adult and go see it.
This thriller and drama is about a man named Nick Dunne whose wife, Amy Dunne, went missing on their fifth wedding anniversary and he’s searching for her/ what happened to her.  While searching for her, secrets of their marriage surface and the media, public, and police are questioning if he killed her.
The movie was directed by David Fincher and produced by Leslie Dixon, Reese Witherspoon, and Bruna Papandrea.  It’s 2 hours and 25 minutes and rated R.
               Since this movie came out on October 3rd, the purchase of the book the movie is based on, Gone Girl, has skyrocketed.  The book was written by Gillian Flynn and published in June of 2012.  Gone Girl was #1 on the New York Times Hardcover Fiction Bestseller list for eight weeks and was on National Public Radio's hardcover fiction bestseller list for twenty-six weeks. Its genre is considered a thriller, drama, mystery, and suspenseful.  This book is on my top 10 list of must-reads this year and if you’re into mystery and suspense like I am, you might like to read it too.
