she's amazing in The Leftovers, my favorite character, HBO screwed the pooch on that show, it was excellent. Many of the actors were excellent on that show, too bad it didn't connect with regular folk, the show was superb. Huge crush on this woman as well, because she's gorgeous.

Just found this out Lindelof wrote Lost as well as this, no wonder they didn't have any ideas on what to do, great concept no finish. How these F's get jobs is beyond me, burn em all I say. HAVE A COMPLETE STORY/IDEA BEFORE GOING TO PRODUCTION!
A-hole.

Back to Coon. She's delightful.

You call The Leftovers superb and then somehow go into a rant about the showrunner having a job. Huh? I don't know how anyone can blame Lindelof for the flaws of Lost. JJ Abrams basically dumped it on him with no plan and suddenly they were in production. There's nobody in television that could have done a better job with a show based on a plane crash on an island that went on for over 100 episodes, with so little preparation time on top of it.

I was surprised to see she played Margot, Affleck’s sister, in Gone Girl. Versatile actress.

Also his twin.

It was the full nudity that I appreciated.

I first seen her in 'Timeliness' (2003). I thought she did pretty well in it. I liked how she said, "but ah buffoon".
