Gone Girl
I think maybe, when I was very young, I witnessed a chaste cheek kiss between the two when it was impossible to avoid. Christmas, birthdays. Dry lips. On their best married days, their communications were entirely transactional: 'We're out of milk again.' {I'll get some today.} 'I need this ironed properly.' {I'll do that today.} 'How hard is it to buy milk?' {Silence.} 'You forgot to call the plumber.' {Sigh.} 'Goddammit, put on your coat, right now, and go out and get some goddamn milk. Now.' These messages and orders brought to you by my father, a mid-level phonecompany manager who treated my mother at best like an incompetent employee.
