Nick uttered this sweet nothing to Amy in front of five other people just before he produced an engagement ring. The dialog in the beginning of the movie was very pithy and uptown as Nick and Amy got to know each other. Later, as a result of the recession, they moved to Nick's hometown in Missouri. After a few years there the strain began of measuring up to the standards of Amy began to take its toll. suddenly a set of circumstances set off a chain reaction that keeps you in your seat for over two hours.
Nick and Amy are both Narcissists from different backgrounds. Pike was almost perfectly typecast as a beautiful, wealthy, intelligent, sophisticated writer of children's books. Affleck did well as the more down to earth Nick who fights to avoid the death penalty aided by his sister and super-divorce lawyer, Tyler Perry. Dougie Howser plays one of Amy's long lost loves that plays into the web.
Drama, suspense, and a few very serious twists and turns. Definitely worth seeing. Tip: No bladder buster drinks or you will miss something.
This one is better than the trailers let on.

Indeed. This is another great movie.
will get an Oscar nom'n for sure. She had that Kathleen Turner/Laura Linney thing going for her. I'd call this her breakout role. I thought Affleck, Dickens, Coon, Perry were terrific as well.
There were some plot implausibilities in the third act but Hell, this was anything but a police procedural. Very good Film Noir.

Reach her, I mean.
...nice to see her in a lead role.
...one of the closest film adaptations of a terrific book I have seen.
Excellent performances by the leads.
Will be nominated for an Oscar (but won't win since the best films are just being released in the next 3 months).
Highly recommended.
Congrats. Since the inception of the internet I haven't been able to sit still for longer than three paragraphs. I have lost the art of reading as a result of technology. I have a Millennial mind.

Funny the vagina line made the biggest impression on you ;-)
