Review by Oliver Pfeiffer

[rating: 4]

Untimely and unfortunate similarities to the Madeleine McCain case deemed Ben Affleck’s directorial debut Gone Baby Gone too sensitive to under go its original intended premiere screening at last year’s BFI London film festival. Now 12 months after Madeleine’s tragic disappearance Affleck’s film gets its premiere release in UK cinemas.

But the film is more than just a routine Hollywood thriller; it’s a hardened nut of a detective mystery that proves Affleck’s got what it takes to make the successful transition from average acting player of sometime lacksure Hollywood efforts (Pearl Harbor, Daredevil, The Sum of All Fears) to sensitive helmer of intelligent and meaningful movies.

  Gone Baby Gone revolves around the esteemed efforts of two romantically linked inexperienced private investigations who attempt to track down the whereabouts of a missing four year old girl, in the midst of the toughest slums of downtown Boston. Initially reluctant ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Gone Baby Gone was an incredible directorial debut from the multi-talented Ben Affleck who in the past two years has finally started to put those terrible low brow comedies behind him and has really stepped up his game as an interesting voice in the industry once again.

Smartly, the news today is that Affleck is teaming once again with Gone Baby Gone screenwriter Aaron Stockard and Miramax Studio's to produce (and possibly direct but the trades don't say that) another film noir/crime novel in The Blade Itself, a well reviewed first time novel from Marcus Sakey.


"Blade" revolves around two Chicago childhood friends who made their reputation committing petty crimes as kids before choosing different paths in life. When they are reunited years later, one is forced to decide how far he will go to protect the secrets of his past. Esquire magazine named the novel one of the five best of 2007.
