David Fincher’s ‘Gone Girl’ was released 10 years ago today which included the iconic Cool Girl monologue

feminist icon.

I still don’t know how to feel about this monologue delivered specifically by Amy. I mean she’s right but she’s also so very wrong for the way she weaponises it for her truly awful behaviour.

And that’s good writing. I love the discourse it creates to this day. I’m just glad it’s fiction and I can love Amy Dunne in all her toxic glory.

i just read the book for the first time and she was, somehow, even crazier in the book. love it. the movie is incredible too.
