About the film
You don't know what you've got 'til it's...
What it’s about
On the morning of his fifth wedding anniversary, Nick Dunne finds his wife Amy missing from their Missouri home. Signs of a struggle and a hastily cleaned bloodstain suggest violence. As the police investigation begins, Nick's odd behaviour and a trail of clues from Amy's annual treasure hunt turn the spotlight on him.
What hooks you
David Fincher directs this adaptation of Gillian Flynn's novel, with Ben Affleck as Nick and Rosamund Pike as Amy. Pike won a Saturn Award for her performance, and the film also earned a Saturn for Best Thriller. It was shot entirely in 6K resolution, a first for a feature film.
Who it’s for
It is worth a look for anyone who enjoys psychological thrillers that twist through media scrutiny and marital distrust. It is worth a look for anyone who likes detective stories where the clues point in unsettling directions.

Trivia
All facts 8
- The film is based on Gillian Flynn's novel "Gone Girl" (2012).
- Reese Witherspoon, Charlize Theron, Natalie Portman, Emily Blunt, Rooney Mara, Olivia Wilde, Abbie Cornish and Julianne Hough were considered for the role of Amy Dunne.
- This is the first feature film shot entirely in 6K resolution (6144 x 3160).
- Although the film's events unfold in North Carthage, Missouri, filming took place in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Extras were cast at the Rose Theatre at Southeast Missouri State University, which is also located in Cape Girardeau.
- Ben Affleck postponed work on his own film in order to work with David Fincher. Affleck said: "He is the only director I know who can do anyone's job better than the people who do it." Once on set, Affleck slightly changed the camera settings, having bet a crew member that Fincher wouldn't notice. But when filming began, Fincher immediately asked why the image looked a little dim.
- One of the film's scenes takes place in Missouri, in an abandoned shopping mall that has become something of a mecca for vagrants. These scenes were shot in Los Angeles: exterior shots were filmed near a closed Montgomery Ward store, while interiors were filmed in the huge Hawthorne Mall.
