I read Gone Girl voraciously over two days around this time last year, and was obsessed with it. An amazing spin on the he said, she said, with two narrators, each as unreliable as the other. When I heard David Fincher was going to be directing the big screen adaptation, I prayed and prayed that his vision wouldn't be impeded by box office requirements, but I figured he isn't the sort of director who would let money get in the way of making his picture. And viola... Gone Girl, an extremely high-profile 2014 release, with an 18 rating (going by the comments directed at the BBFC account, many was surprised by the decision).
I'm delighted. No having to watch it with brat teenagers, and more importantly, Fincher got to carry his vision through! Win win!
By the by, in the BBFC insight, it transpires that the film also has several strong sex scenes, and breast nudity. Me's betting that Emily Ratajkowski, aka the stunning brunette off the Blurred Lines video, definitely gets her baps out. That's all very well, but she'd better make a convincing Andie whilst she's at it.

Yep, it's Emily who is naked :) I loved the book so much, now I'm listening to the soundtrack which is just fantastic. I cannot wait for the movie.
The soundtrack is seriously eerie, suits the movie's tone perfectly!
I'm seeing it on the 8th - can't wait!
