Synopsis
Gone Girl (2014) is David Fincher's ice-cold psychological thriller — watch it online on iFILM. Ben Affleck plays Nick Dunne, a Missouri man whose wife Amy vanishes on their fifth wedding anniversary. The house shows signs of a struggle, there's blood someone tried to scrub away, and a puzzle-trail of diary entries left behind.
Rosamund Pike plays Amy with a controlled ferocity that barely lets a single true emotion show. The police zero in on Nick; the media turns the case into a cable-news spectacle. Gillian Flynn adapted the script from her own 2012 bestselling novel — and rewrote the ending so even readers of the book won't see it coming. The supporting cast includes Carrie Coon, Tyler Perry, and Neil Patrick Harris, each pulling the story in a different direction.
Fincher shoots with the same clinical, airless precision as Zodiac and The Social Network, building dread from suburban furniture and news-ticker crawls. At 149 minutes, the film never lets you settle. Stream Gone Girl (2014) online on iFILM.
