Who do you think should win?
The Verdict Director's Cut
Pike's Amy Dunne dominating Foster's Meg Altman says that Fincher's marriage thriller generates deeper engagement than his contained siege. 'Cool girl' entered the vocabulary. 'Amazing Amy' became archetype. The brownstone generated tension. The marriage generated cultural conversation. The margin says conversation outlasts tension.
