Factual error: Amy leaves a lot of her blood in the kitchen. Now, I've donated blood quite a few times and I can assure you that after that much bleeding nobody does all the things Amy did right afterwards. It wears you out completely and overcoming it requires resting as well as eating and drinking properly. Huge loss of liquid and big drop in blood-sugar level.

Suggested correction: This is a very anecdotal argument, obviously donating blood/losing a lot of blood affects different people differently (I am completely fine after donating) and Amy is hyperfocused on her scheme at that.

Plot hole: SPOILER: When Amy comes back, doctors would have checked her non-existent head wound from the "abduction", from where she supposedly lost that much blood. That would and should have revealed all of Amy's lies.

Trivia: Hollywood actress Reese Witherspoon was a fan of the novel and purchased the rights, intending to play the role of Amy herself. However, once David Fincher was attached as director, she opted to serve only as a producer, realizing she wasn't right for the role.

Question: After Amy has killed Mr Collins, as she's climbing off the bed, she puts her hand securely between her legs, like she is trying to hold onto his semen. Is that what she's doing?

Chosen answer: That may have been what she was doing. Amy was attempting to make it look like she'd been repeatedly raped by Collins, so she was doing various things to herself, like using a bottle to self-inflict trauma onto her privates to look like forced sex.
