Pacquet-Brenner takes us through 'Dark Places'
Two years after the opening of the pervertedly female-empowering "Gone Girl" (based on Gillian Flynn's best-selling novel), I'm one of the people who still get chills when remembering Rosamund Pike's monologue. "Gone Girl" officially put Flynn's name on the map in more ways than one. Her online reputation in the U.S. is that of a female novelist who promotes rabid feminism with the help of prestigious male directors. In "Gone Girl" that male director was David Fincher. Now another Flynn novel — "Dark Places" — has been adapted to the screen, this time by French-born Gilles Pacquet-Brenner ("Sarah's Key"). The chill factor is toned down here, but Flynn's fascination with the evil and cruelty lurking in a woman's heart is expertly conveyed.
