Probably his best performance. I love how he kept his composure til the very end while the other killer was being ate alive with guilt.

Keep up the good work Ben.

they look nothing alike. i honestly believe most people have horrible facial recognition, or just general lack of visual acuity.

I agree with a previous poster, Jason Sudeikis looks exactly like Dall… There's also parts where he resembles Guy Pearce.. Overall cool performance,, Can not stand Granger in this or Strangers on a Train though..

I was thinking he looked more like Ryan Reynolds.

Coming soon - the John Dall story, starring Ben Affleck as John Dall.

Absolutely - and i thought Rob Lowe did a good turn as his panicky partner in crime Phillip Morgan. Very early roles for these two - although they look abit older than i expected !

That which does not Kill me makes me Stranger

I thought the film starred Pete Campbell from Mad Men, with dyed hair.

It is a great performance, for sure, and Jimmy was great too.

However Gone Girl was the worst Hitchcock film I ever saw.
