As this story slowly unfolds over a thirty day period, we learn that Amy is a famous writer and that everything she and Nick shared was in her name and that Amy paid for the bar that he and his twin sister, Margo (Carrie Coon) run together.

As you may have guessed, the film starts with the mysterious disappearance of Ben Affleck's wife, Amy.

David Fincher has also made the decision to remain in the same territory of genre throughout a big portion of his films, and while Gone Girl suggests a recognizable set-up, it is a different and far more experimental Fincher who comes out on the other side...
