Show Notes

  • Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn - Book | Audible
  • Gone Girl (2014) - Blu-ray
  • Why Reese Witherspoon wasn’t in
    • Gone Girl:  "Whenever David Fincher says he wants to do a
    project, you just sit back and say, 'Whatever you want to do.' We
    had a long conversation where he was like, "You're not right for
    it. And this is why.' And I actually completely agreed with
    him."
  • Trent Reznor on working w/ David
    • Fincher: It's very critical to sit with David and try to get
    inside his head and translate what he's saying or feeling into an
    approach. David said "some of this movie deals with the
    concept of façades and appearances – whether it be to your spouse
    or to the public. Maybe let's pursue an idea where we are
    trying to tell you either subconsciously or blatantly that
    everything's OK here, but with an insincere callousness to
    it."
  • Rosamund Pike definitely got caught up in the Fincher acting
    • method - to the point of doing some
    awkward things with a Dora the Explorer doll.
