It's not radical revolutionary violence. She frames and murders innocent people.

[(Anonymous)]

I think it's easy as hell, and not necessarily wrong, to frame it that way, though.

I mean, I think that's generally the case for things of this nature, although I acknowledge it is possible that there is some specific feature of Gone Girl that makes it impossible.

[insanenoodlyguy]

We all have our interpretations, but that one's a big fucking stretch anon.

[(Anonymous)]

Eh. Maybe.

That's definitely the way in which I've seen people talk about her on here, and it seems unlikely that it would be wildly invalid. And the great thing is it still works even if the character is flawed and fucked-up.

[insanenoodlyguy]

You are admitting you haven't watched it, so I don't really think I can do much more then offer you a differing opinion. I disagree with these other interpretations obviously. If your interested in the character, why not watch it?

[(Anonymous)]

Because it seems kind of dour and bad

I talked more about what I think in the post below if you care (not that you really particularly should, it's all good)

[(Anonymous)]

is it? the title *is* a commentary on that very question. "Gone" Girl <- "Go" Girl... and what if she *did* really "go"?

[(Anonymous)]

Then tell me how it's right.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't think it's right. I think it's (probably) valid.

[(Anonymous)]

Then tell me how.

[(Anonymous)]

If it is acceptable to interpret the character's actions and feelings as, in any way, a reaction to an experience that is specifically a result of her gender, and her victims as in any way standing in for broader social conditions, then it is acceptable to understand the film as being about radical violence.

And this seems to be a reasonably common interpretation, at the very least.

[(Anonymous)]

NAYRT

"In any way" gives you a hell of a lot of leeway.

[sarillia]

Vigilante justice is often murdering people because they've decided these people don't deserve their right to due process and that the laws against capital punishment don't matter, and it's still very popular because it satisfies people in some way.

[(Anonymous)]

The Punisher has a LOT of fans, for exactly that reason.
