Dana and Tom with guests, Christine Duncan and Peterson W. Hill (War Starts at Midnight podcast), discuss Gone Girl (2014) for its 10th Anniversary: directed by David Fincher, written by Gillian Flynn, Music by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, starring Ben Affleck, Rosamund Pike, Carrie Coon, Tyler Perry, and Neil Patrick Harris.

Plot Summary: In "Gone Girl," we delve into a real-life mystery that’ll have you on the edge of your seat. A charming husband (Ben Affleck) finds himself in hot water when his wife (Rosamund Pike) mysteriously disappears. As the media frenzy grows, secrets surface, revealing a twisted tale of deceit, betrayal, and the ultimate manipulation of truth. This isn't just a whodunit—it's a dark reflection of marriage and the masks we wear.
