Dark Places has already been filmed with Therone and Chloe Grace Moretz. For some reason they had a hard time finding distributors for the film. Hopefully after Gone Girl's huge success this won't be an issue anymore.

When I first heard it was Charlize as Libby I couldn't get passed the height. Libby was supposed to be 4'9 and Charlize is close to 6 feet.

Exactly!!! Also Theron doesn't sit well in my mind as Libby. Amy Adams does. Then Emily Blunt but even Jessica Chastain. Someone like that. Michelle Williams is another great pick.



But Theron? Hm no. But am quite sure she'll do a good job since she's an amazing actress. Chloe Mortez is apt.

Ohhh Michelle Williams I can totally see as grown up Libby. She portrays vulnerable and lost and despondent really well. Well too late now lol, but yea I'm sure the cast has done a great job.


I'm glad there are other Gillian Flynn fans. She's an amazing writer.

@ILB: I AM OBSESSED with her!!!! After reading GG, I devoured her other other books in flat 3 days. They hook you in & you can't close them. She's also really clever, sharp & seems like such wholesome fun. She's an incredible writer. I am so happy she was laid off her job.

Oh AA is one of my favourites. She was there for all of 15 mins or so in American Hustle & she was FANTASTIC. ⭐️



I know. I want to watch HER & a couple of others. No I haven't watched any nominated film apart from Imitation Game & Theory Of Everything.


I love AA too! Remember her little party in CMIFC with Leo. Speilberg told her she was gonna be a huge star--he saw it in her. She can be so vulnerable and yet to fierce within seconds.

I loved Graham Moore's speech! It was so honest. Yet that spontanous joy of Eddie's speech just touched me. Esp the "there's a little fella coming to share our apartment!" AWWW! HOW can you not love him. <3


I liked Julianne's too. Common's are really good. It's nice when people talk about something other than thank you to so and so. It elevates the moment. Like, Tom Hanks speech for when he won for Philadelhphia is something I still remember, some for Sandy's and Russell Crowe.

Loved what you said, it really does uplift the moment. The speeches were the best bit of the Oscars & it wasn't only NPH was boring, lol. I loved Commons-Lengend's too. Tom H's speech was epic.


But my favourites were Eddie & Graham M & Lupita last year.
