All Good Things (2010 Andrew Jarecki)

Written by Marcus Hinchey and Marc Smerling, and based on true events, in which it's made pretty clear that violent, unstable Ryan Gosling has killed and disposed of Kirsten Dunst, then (in a somewhat bizarre twist) starts wearing women's clothing and wigs! He is suffering from a terrible childhood incident. Dunst: "I've never been closer to anyone - but I don't know you at all." Or something. They are both excellent.

Twist involves Diane Venora, who's also murdered by duped Philip Baker Hall. With Frank Langella, Lily Rabe, Michael Esper, Nick Offerman, Kristen Wiig.

Great makeup, prosthetics by Mike Moreno. Solemnly photographed by Michael Seresin.  Some of the music / action seems to evoke Herrmann and Hitch.
