David Fincher's Gone Girl is a weird, feminist, anti-feminist, crazy-exciting, well-acted thrill ride. We try to wrap our brain around Gone Girl's seemingly conflicting themes and messages, talk about its amazing performances, and try to consider three ways to see this movie's overall standpoint. Is it positive? Does it reinforce negative rape culture tropes? Does it say nothing? Who knows.
But overall, it's a great thriller! Go see it! And then listen to us talk in circles about it.
