Trivia:
Ben Affleck's directorial debut in a major motion picture, although he did direct two other movies that never made it to the big screen. more
Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Near the end of the film, when Helene is talking to Patrick about the guy she's about to go out on a date with, she says, "He drove down from Providence". Anyone living in Boston all their life would never say it that way, instead, she would say, "He drove up from Providence" as Providence is south of Boston geographically. more
Quotes:
[first lines]
Patrick Kenzie: I always believed it was the things you don't choose that makes you who you are. Your city, your neighborhood, your family. People here take pride in these things, like it was something they'd accomplished. The bodies around their souls, the cities wrapped around those...

When I went into the theater to see Gone Baby Gone, Casey Affleck was not what I pictured when I read Dennis Lehane's Patrick Kenzie novels. But he won me over and will now forever be Kenzie as far as I'm concerned.

Gone Baby Gone is a tough and gritty movie about a child abduction and the lives it destroys. You can see the end coming a little too early in the movie, but it's still fascinating watching Kenzie slog through a lot of awful stuff before you get there. Ben Affleck has proved that he can direct a movie with the best of them. There was nothing slack or boring for the entire running time, and the ending will give you something to argue about over dinner after watching the movie.

The best detective movie I've seen in a while.
